As some of you know, I recently got a job in California. Yeah, I know .. really narrows that down *grin*. I'd rather keep my job specific stuff out of the blog.
So ... about a week ago, we drove from Florida to California .. what a drive! With a lovely little Garmin nuvi 200 we managed to get here without any wrong turns!! How's that for almost 3000 miles?!
We passed through Vicksburg in some state or the other ... it was a long trip.
We spent a long, long time .. almost a day I think .. in Texas where we saw many oil rigs out in the middle of the fields. And where I got told that I had to fill out a
form to have a drink. Apparently in that part of Texas, out of state visitors need some id card to get a drink .. umm ... yeah ... no ....
And from Texas into New Mexico .. the Land of Enchainment! Ummm .. okay the mountains were pretty, and it was very nice to see mountains again, but ... enchantment? 
So cool for the mesas .. but .. that's all there is in New Mexico. Really ... oh .. mesas and some faux Indian villages ... 
And then we were into California!!! WOOT!!! Unfortunately I slept through a good portion of the entrance into California .. but I did drive enough for Chris to get a few pictures of the very cool trees on the drive!! 
Aren't they cool? There was fields and fields of them!!
