The Plan

Before my roadtrip, I am stealing Bailey (aka Beeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaa). Where's Bea? New York. But Next week, I'm picking her up, and we'll be in the valley for almost a week. Bailey will join me for the first half of the trip, and Nina will join me for the second half, so expect both of these sassy ladies to contribute to the blog. We're going to take a hundred bazillion pictures too.

Here's our itinerary of important places. We will need to stop in the middle of nowhere sometimes, but no one cares about that, so these are the places shaping our route:

-- Albany, NY. Pick up car, say goodbye. (July 23rd -- 26th)

-- New York, NY. Pick up Bailey, say hello. Visit Chiara. (26th -- 27th)

--Northampton, MA. Finish packing, say goodbye! (30th or 31st)

-- Lusby, Maryland. Visit my dad and stick around for a day or two to play on some boats.

-- Huntsville, Alabama? Not sure yet -- it was my former hometown, where I lived for 6 or 7 years. Depends how sappy I want to get.

-- New Orleans, LA. Because it's on the way and I've never been.

-- Texarkana, TX? Where I was born. 6 hour detour -- probably not going to do it, but once again, I could get sappy.

-- San Antonio, TX. PICK UP NINAFACE :D Put Bailey on a plane for Colorado :(

-- Grand Canyon. So I can see something wider than your mom's ... smile.

-- Las Vegas, NV. Visiting Shauna, my childhood best friend. NOT being drunk gambling idiots. Not my scene.

-- CALIFORNIA! First to Los Angeles, CA to visit Arielle and Grace (if they will have us) and drive around at a slow crawl, if traffic permits even that, getting to know the place. Then onto Monterey, CA, to see the aquarium, then head 2 hrs north to San Francisco, CA. Unload my stuff, visit with long-lost family, apply for jobs in LA and SF, look for places in LA and SF, look at cars, etc, all while attempting to convince Nina to move in with me somewhere. After a week or two, back to Los Angeles, CA. Fly out, play around some more, check out apartments, maybe some interviews if I'm lucky... oh, and KELLITA!
