Planning Some Travel

Finally I’m moving toward taking a long overdue trip.

I’ve been holding off for a lot of reasons. Excessive heat across the country, the activation of the solar panels on the roof, other little projects and my knees are only now getting to the point that they’re not swollen at the end of the day.

I wasn’t looking forward to wandering through an airport (or airports) at random, as flights were subject to cancellation. I don’t like being bounced all over the country when I expected travel time to take 10 hours.

Even driving daily short distances was a problem.

Everything is finally healing and I could probably deal with either mode of transportation now. I’m probably going to drive it so I can have some time to myself and see the beauty of the country.

While it will take about $90 in gas to get the hell out of California. Once I get to the border the cost for gas will drop by at least half. I think the car would do well having several tanks of gas run through it. It would flush out old stale gas out of the tank and the injectors. There are some states where 93 Octane is easy to come by, my car really likes high octane fuel.

If I driving, I’m going to choose a more northerly route in hope of seeing some fall colors.
