So driving thru TN was nice. Lots of different scenery. Memphis was prolly the trickiest driving area. Especially when the GPS lies! Arkansas was SOOOOOOO boring. The last 50 miles got somewhat picturesque. Oklahoma..not bad. I stopped at a tourst trap cause I saw a sign for buffalo burgers. Only they were being served at a really scary redneck buffet place...not the sort of place I felt like eating alone.
Driving thru TX was not too bad. New Mexico was by far my favorite. I have decided that if San Fran doesnt work out, I am going back to Albuquerque to live in a pueblo.
Arizona was strange. It was mountainous. It felt like Colorado should feel. There was snow everywhere. I was pretty sick of driving thru AZ. It took forever.
Driving thru CA was very nice. Lots of mandarin groves. almond orchards, sheep herds, cow pastures. Mountains in the back, rolling hills in the front. Sun peeking thru clouds. Not really a dull moment.
All in all, the drive was very easy. And then I got to San Fran and it was less easy. I am not especially fond of driving over bridges, so the bay bridge was not a picnic. However, it was night, and the lights from the city greeted me.
So now Im here. Lola is adjusting quite well, but the loud noises still scare her. Hopefully I will be here long enough for her to ignore them.
BTW Im living in Alamo Square. The area thats in the Full House opening credits. The row of houses is called the painted ladies. ( im not in any of those, but they are close by. Too bad Uncle Jesse isnt there!)

Viva La New Mexico...and az

Yeah I messed with Texas!

so after a laaaaaaaaaaaaatte start I made it to Murfreesboro, TN. I could have gone further but the check engine light came on in the car! WTF! So now Im at a HOJO right down the street from the toyota place. It smells. I think the whole place has seen better days. After some heavy investigating, Lola decided it was safe to pass out on the bed. Hopefully I wil make it very far tomorrow. Hopefully I will get some pictures! There were several shots I would have like to have gotten, but I really just wanted to get some driving done. And its cold in TN! Tomorrow wil be more interesting..hopefully

uh..yeah

blah!
