Seattle Road Trip 2016

Day 04: Santa Cruz to Napa 154 miles (640)

State plates: 28/50 Today was a hazy and lazy drive up the coast, through SF, over the Golden Gate Bridge and up into Napa. The early part was very interesting, with what felt like multiple biomes all in one spot. There was farming right up to the water, with heartland Read more

Day 03: Part Two Santa Cruz Boardwalk

Day 01: Palm Desert to Morro Bay – 327 miles

State License Plates: 20/50 We left at 9:30 and landed in Morro Bay around 5:30. LA traffic (and a stop over in Santa Barbara for lunch) will do that to you. That should be the worst of it for this trip. Sarah booked us a night at a bed and Read more
