Just thinking about this trip makes me happy! Ending up at the end of the historic Route 66 at the entrance to the Santa Monica pier makes me even happier. Again, those of you who know us, know that we'd really like to end up in California ~ the place where Heaven and Earth meet. We spent about 10 years there during Jim's military career: some at Vandenberg AFB near Lompoc and some at LA Air Force Station (we lived in Thousand Oaks, just across the canyon from Malibu). Yes, I know, why did we leave. Air Force, baby, Air Force.
So now I have done a little research and came across some of the sites we'll be visiting. Like the place where they've buried several elderly Cadillacs nose down in the dirt. Or the Paul Bunyon statue - he is carrying a giant wiener. Plus trying to match all of the locations from the movie "Cars".
Check these sites out:
Super interesting!

Oh yea, I am ready to head out. We can "ride" into the sunset together.
