Coasting, Drifting, Living on the Road

We did indeed coast downhill finding a fuel stop with local wheat apricot ale and a killin' stout...and diesel, too. We headed to the coast to make our way toward Redwood National Park. As we passed Arcata, our most rockin' friend, Jennifer Wennifer, came to mind. For a time we had planned to hook up with her in California for a week or so of our roadtrip. At one point the plan included her flying into the Arcata area to meet us. Had that plan worked out, 'The Lady” would have needed a pilots license or a hang-glider as the airport was about the size of our front yard and the windsock looked like it might have been one of my long lost woolies that seem to go AWOL in the washing and drying process. We had a hearty laugh and a quick but solemn tear that JW couldn't make the trip this year. Perhaps another year we will rendezvous in a leftist South American country and J Wo can sneak in under the cover of night by one-woman "nucular (ha ha Wubya)" sub.

Coming soon...adventures from the Redwoods National Park!

Hellooo road rats! Sounds like you guys are having a total blast, and my envy doth overfloweth. The blog updates and photos have been a tasty little treat. Keep them coming! As for the airport in the Arcata area... I wasn't really planning to fly in. I was going to Aparate. (Ask Ali and Sara to explain this. It's a Harry Potter thang.) I got your message on my birthday. Thanks for remembering lil' ol' me!! It was a nice, relaxing birthday. (Translation: I'm too old now to do anything exciting.) Well guys, as much as I regret not being there with The Bergeron clan for some unforgettable road adventures, it turns out that my decision to not join you was a good one as Danny got laid off about three weeks ago. That's right... Jennifer Wennifer and Danny Wanny are BOTH unemployed! Zoiks! But it's all good. We're working on a game plan, and we're feeling optimistic! The cup is half full. (And I hope it's filled with a nice Pinot!!) We'll give you the scoop on everything when you're back at Casa del Bergeron! Enjoy your adventures... and misadventures too! - Much Love, 'The Lady' (P.S. Post a picture of Biesel. I'm dying to see her!)
