Road Trip to Humboldt County


And you think your fuel prices are high!

Can't get away without going to the local casino


Both Cecile and I were getting pretty restless so we decided to take a road trip up north to Eureka and Trinidad on Wednesday. We convinced Pat to go with us, although we didn't have to twist her arm too hard. It was a lot of driving...and a lot of gas, but it was nice to get away for the day and the scenery along the way is beautiful. We did a little shopping, a little gambling and a lot of reminiscing about our old stomping grounds. But do we miss our life back then...NO.

Ain't life grand!

Yeah, you didn't have to twist my arm-I'm always up for an "E-ticket" ride. it was fun listening to you both waxing nostaglic-and seeing a part of your lives. Trinidad was an exceptional treat.

What a fun grip for you guys. But I had to chuckle at your line "Can't get away without going to the local casino" like . . . don't you plan trips like this KNOWING there is a local casino??? TeeHeeee. . . but, of course, you did win enough to pay for the gas, right? See you soon!
