Wife and I just finished up a ~1300 mile trip through California in our '77 micro keystone. There was a large storm that rolled through the northern half of the state which kept us moving south.
We ended up taking a lot of highway 1, enjoying the scenic way, eventually ending up in Joshua Tree.

My pre-sleep code change had turned my blog into a 500 error factory. So much for easing into Monday – there I was, debugging in my pajamas, coffee still a distant dream. One quick fix later, we're back online.
