Little over a year ago I transferred my belongings from S.F. Ca. to northern Florida. We drove from SF to Yosemite, to Las Vegas, toured the dam, Grand Canyon, to Bryce Canyon, through Salt Lake, Yellowstone, Jackson Hole, down to Nebraska, to St. Louis. We stopped at all kinds of roadside stops for lunch. From St. Louis is was a straight drive to Florida.

I had made this drive numerous times. My wife is from the Philippines, and I thought it was important for her to see just how wonderful, and diverse her new home is. As an example...even though I had seen the Grand Canyon twice before, and taken a helicopter ride down below the rim. I was once again in awe of Mother Nature.

One would have to spend more than a lifetime to see it all. Maybe several lifetimes? Thanks for the site Warren. Although seeing the Golden Gate, and the boats at pier 39 on SF Bay did make me homesick!
