Houston Here I Come - Day 1

 Hello Everyone,

Just a quick post today.  We headed out yesterday for our road trip to Quilt Market in Houston.  It wouldn't be possible to drive through the Central Valley of California without stopping at Andersen's Pea Soup.  It wasn't a soup kind of day, so I opted for a salad.


After driving a zillion miles through the valley, we turned East to Bakersfield, and finally saw a mountain.  I was so encouraged the landscape was changing.


We drove through the Tehachapi mountains and saw the wind farms.  Eons ago, I mapped all of the wind turbines at my job at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. It was nice to see them in person.


Our goal was Barstow and we made it.  

We are setting out for Mesa, AZ today.  We are planning to meet up with our granddaughter and boyfriend for dinner and watch Dan play in a hockey game.  It's going to be a long drive with fun at the end of the day.

Soon,
Lynn
