gone 404

Well, I'm back. Did you miss me? If you haven't noticed, it's been a whirlwind of travel but I am home for a few weeks.

Palm Springs to San Francisco and back, to Corona del Mar and Thousand Oaks and home, to Washington, DC and on to Detroit, then to Flint, Flint to Saugatuck and Three Oaks, Three Oaks to Kankakee, IL, to Kalamazoo (where I most assuredly do NOT have a gal), back to Flint, a quick run to Lansing and home again (via Dallas!), only to turn around and head back to LA and then off to Vancouver.

I've been on eleven airplanes (from a triple seven to a prop job that reminded me of a Jenny), two buses, a cruise ship, a car ferry, a pontoon boat, and behind the wheel of a range of cars from a '67 Fleetwood to a preproduction Nissan, with a Clenet Continental thrown in for good measure.

Most has been professional and is detailed on my other site, PS Automobilist. But there was lots of family and friend time as well as hometown stuff that will find its way here.

But I'm glad to be home. I have a stack of boarding passes and a million photos. Best of all, the desert is cooling off- today's high will be 92 or so. It hit 115 when I was traveling. I hope this means autumn is coming. I'm ready for it.

Summer is exhausting.
