i am generally a calm person… except maybe when heading out on a trip. once i’m on the trip, i’m good again, able to roll with the punches, but leading up to a trip, i get a little antsy, a little irritable. this trip out to to california this weekend is no exception. so i was up early (like 3 a.m. early) this morning, but luckily able to catch a few more hours before zipping out of the house to catch a plane.
made it in time, no problem. C was as good a traveler as he always is. glass perpetually half full, no complaints. we landed in sacramento early but then got caught in an epically long line a the car rental counter. so we were verging dangerously close to hangry when we rolled in to…
… for lunch. it was delicious. (have you guessed? i mean, obviously it’s UC Davis, right?)
the campus was deserted. spring break + covid? perfect. i have to say, each of these visits we’ve squeezed in over the last year or so have involved a lot of imagination… but still. it was pretty.
then 2 hour drive down to south bay for quick dinner with the grandma, and zip over the mountains to bed down in santa cruz. day two starts in just a few hours.
weee!
