Today [livejournal.com profile] kshandra and I had one thing on the agenda, a trip up to Concord for [livejournal.com profile] britgeekgrrl's garage sale. Getting me out of the house on the weekends is hard, simply because I spend all week in a truck and the las thing I want on the weekend is more time in a moving vehicle. But the call of really cheap RPG stuff called, so up we went.

Along the way I mentioned it might be fun, since we were already that far north, to just continue on so I could show Kiri one of my favorite drives. "Sure, why not?" was the reply. So after scoring some really cool stuff at the garage sale, we were off.

A map made for two.

We stopped for lunch at a truck stop at the CA-12/I-5 junction and briefly debated heading to one of the wineries that dominate the Lodi area. However I'd want to do a full day there and it was getting late. Instead, I introduced Kirsten to the bane of my existence, SR-4 between Stockton and Brentwood and showed her The Vendor in the Corn. From there down Vasco Road and past my favorite rock formation anywhere. She's now seen two out of the three really long drives on my route.

This was a really great day, made even better the complete lack of planning. We simply must do it again sometime.
