09 of 30 - Central Valley Ho!

[aggienaut]

   This is what I get to look forward to for six of the next eight hours! The entire central valley looks the same. )= And radio options are a whole lot of mariachi stations, a few country stations, and a few bible-reading stations. I find the latter the most bearable.

Bonus TV Show Idea
"The Real Real OC" - While there are filthy rich people in Orange County, they are not the norm as most television shows featuring Orange County would have you believe. I think it would be amusing to make a show that similarly portrays things that do happen but are not representative, but to the opposite effect. It would take place in remote corners of Orange County like Trabuco Canyon, or the impoverished depths of Santa Ana (OC's largist city). Recently Jeremy and Bob from work had to herd three turkeys out of the road in Santa Ana before they could proceed. Not the OC you see on TV.
   Speaking of which, I just walked into the other room where my little brother's girlfriend Stacie was watching "The OC" on her computer. I watched it before about 45 seconds before I couldn't stand it anymore. It was totally insipid. Funny looking 30 yr olds pretending to be high school students just kept awkwardly expressing their interest in eachother, one after another!

Nice photo.

If you don't mind spending a lot more time driving, there's plenty to see in the central valley (I suspect!) by avoiding I-5 and CA-99. Consider CA-33, a two-lane highway that parallels I-5 to the east. You might find some small-town charm, maybe some good pie at a diner. Carizzo Plain is out in that direction; I've wanted to check it out for some time now.

I was thinking about doing something different like that. Or traveling down the coast or something

If you are going back down on the fifteenth, oh.. funny.

what?

Oh that you seem to be driving up here, or down there, and that we live so relatively close, had there been some coordination between us, it coulda been useful and fuel saving.

Why is the photo 2006?

TV is like Halloween--it's an exaggerated version of something you're not in real life.
