Ah.... finally got a couple of trips home to Calabasas. First trip was on the weekend of May 5-6 and then again for Mother's day May 12-13. It had been 5 weeks since I was last home.
Route 99 is my new friend. It is the older road down the middle of California, to the east of the newer more boring I-5. CA-99 goes through all Mid-CA ag-towns like Modesto, Fresno, Bakersfield, etc. My new favorite truck stop is "Bravo Farms." They have a great little shop there with really excellent Western Deco doodads. I've picked up a few cast iron decorative items for the camper. Cool stuff - bucking broncs, cowboy boots, stars, etc. I will have to stop stopping there, otherwise I'll keep buying stuff until the insides of the camper are covered with cast iron and the thing will weight an extra ton!
Mother's day was sweet. Spent the morning with Justine, then up to SB for the afternoon with my Mom, Julie and Jasmine. A nice time.
Then back to Sacto. All is still well on the street, though I've been moving Dolphin Manor more to keep from staying too long in one spot.
This weekend, I'll be heading down to SF for rehearsal with G-Men and The Agency, then party for Melina at Scher House West - ie the Parlor Tricks folks.... I think I'll do a little urban camping - that will get Dolphin Manor out of the neighborhood for couple of days.
Life on the Road.
