What a great trip...

When we left Lompoc, we were about 230 miles from home. We were able to travel a few miles on CA 1 out of Lompoc, back to the 101, and were so glad for the opportunity. The vistas of cattle country on this winding two/three lane highway are incredible! We made one stop at a pet-friendly restaurant in Calabasas (in the San Fernando Valley) - a good place to get a bite to eat and to wait out the late afternoon LA rush hour traffic. Then we hit the road one last time, arriving back in Costa Mesa a little before 7:00 pm. We'd covered 423 miles in two and a half days, and had been blessed with perfect weather throughout. It was a very memorable trip, but all four of us were very glad to be home again.
