A New Home

       Our drive to our new home in the suburbs of San Francisco was absolutely breath-taking. We drove across the state to the coast and were fortunate enough to take Route 1, The Pacific Coast Highway, north from Cambria. Driving along cliffs with gorgeous views of the Pacific Ocean is something I believe everyone should do at some point in their life. It's so cool to me to know that Ben and I are a short drive away from such beauty!

       We drove north until we reached Monterey where we had lunch at a great bay-front seafood restaurant. From there, we chose to take a more direct route home to avoid the horrific Bay Area traffic (which, inevitably, we still hit!). Although today was our longest drive, it was easily the most beautiful and seemed to fly by. When we finally pulled into the driveway of our new home, we were all grins: we made it!!!
       Driving across the country was, by far, one of the best experiences of my life. Being able to visit, see, and do so many things was amazing, but being able to this all with Ben made it even more special. I will forever treasure this time we had as I know how special and memorable it was. I can't wait to visit some of these places again and to see more places in the future. Most of all, I'm ready... for new experiences, new adventures, and a new home.
       California it is! (Visitors now welcome!)
