Big trip across the states

It has been a while.  Been very busy packing up the house in Annapolis and did the big drive out to SF bay 3 weeks ago.  It was suppose to be a slow tour but we got a later start so not as much time to look around.  Joc, Sully and I fit into the car and drove 3100 miles in 29 hrs over 5 days.  It was a good trip.  Virgina and Tennessee were very nice to drive through, green and hilly, with a good amount of water and rivers.  Nashville was the highlight of the trip, we spent 8 hrs there bar hoping and listening to some great music.  Once we hit the Mississippi, it was all over and we just wanted to drive.

We did stop in Santa Fe for a few hrs.  Very cool town with mountains and desert.  Trails go though it.  Great Architecture and big history.  Then across the Colorado River, into CA for good.

The best part of the trip was when we got to the coast for the last day slow trip up from Paso Robles.  Along the Big Sur Coast on a perfect day.

 

Can't get much better than this!!

We took a doggie pit stop on the best dog beach, Carmel.  No leech law and such a great place.

 Sully was wondering where his golf clubs were

Next stop was Santa Cruz for lunch with the Larson's.  So nice in Capitola.   Great day. Then on up to SF.  We are living in Tiburon for the next few months.  More on that later..
