Saturday was a day trip up to Hopland, CA to visit the Real Goods store, by way of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. I wasn’t all that interested in the destination, but the drive sure was nice. (Mental note: Don’t ever buy a Pontiac Grand Prix/G6. They are fine rental cars, but they are truly typical GM.) The return trip was by way of the Oakland side of the Bay, so it was more California interstate confusion than fun drive.
Sunday was a nice day trip up Skyline Drive to Purisima Creek Redwoods Open Area and some hiking. At the one rest stop we drove through on Skyline Dr, there were lots of people standing around admiring a small, black car. Walking over and talking to the owner, it was an RX7 body with a Corvette engine and a transmission out of a Viper…Someone with too much money.
Another week of class started today, hopefully we’ll make it to a few more attractions evenings this week.
