On The Road - Work Trip

Just like Jack Kerouac I guess, only I have a 20 foot Sprinter van.

So, I'm back from my first southwest clinic tour. 10 days, 2,200 miles, 15+ dealer visits, and who knows how many Red Bulls. I think being on the road this much is going to get me addicted to energy drinks. Again.

But what an amazing trip! I got to check out Joshua Tree (some more), San Diego, Santa Monica, Encinitas, Escondido, Solana Beach, Temecula, Tarzana, West La, Newport Beach, and Las Vegas. I did some camping on the beach, some oceanside bike riding, and I got my first surfing lesson (thanks to Erica.) Hopefully she's not totally embarrassed and will let me come back to flail again...

oh hell yes. Come on back anytime. Next time we can try to steal beer from high schoolers.

I'm in. I'll try really hard to not get a flat tire next time we go on tour. The people watching at the gas station was pretty good though.
