The forecast says temperatures here in the low latitude/low elevation parts of the desert will be in the 90s in the next week. Time to move from my winter habitat. It’s still cold to the north. Meanwhile things look pretty good at the coast—at least in the lower part, like up to Pismo Beach/San Luis Obispo/Morro Bay. No sweltering days or freezing nights.
So I observed the Vernal Equinox today by hitting the road. I plan to bypass the San Diego-Los Angeles megalopolis this time by sneaking in the back way. From here to Barstow, to Bakersfield, to Santa Maria. Or something like that. I’ll be missing some of my favorite beaches, but I’ll also be missing the traffic.
The idea is to replicate last summer’s wanderings up the coast to the Pacific Northwest, minus the Canada part. Then I might go through Washington, Idaho and Montana in early autumn. I have a half year to figure that out.
