criss cross in california

so i woke up yesterday up in the mountains near bear valley. doing a little painting for my father in law. after lunch i drove down to discovery bay and dropped off my brother. then headed back to rocklin. after a quick shower my neighbor came knocking on my door asking if i wanted to make a quick hop to the bay area and back. my neighbor is a private pilot and needed to trade out planes. so hugs and kisses and we were up in the air. i even got to do a little flying. a quick turnanround and we were back in rocklin. almost 500 miles. sadly the first 250 took about 6 hours by car, and the next 250 took less than a third that time. flying. it's a way to go.
