    Count me in - just as long as it's cooler there than here! How about a glass of champagne with a strawberry in it. Haven't had that in a long time. Oh - and since it's such a long ride up the coast, maybe you could stash a few bottles on board so I can sip the whole trip!?? Thanks! Let's get this show on the road...


    Great pic - Monterey???

    I do love that so much of the California coastline in undeveloped, so there's plenty of wild places left. I'll bring the pretzels, always a requirement for road trips!

    As long as the car is right for the trip, I'm IN!

    Like a fleet of mustang convertibles to really enjoy the view AND the roads!

    8/12 is Vinyl Record Day ... August 12th is the date Edison invented the phonograph in 1877. So, while I get out my p honograph with the o-l-d needle, could I have a diet 7-up, please? (Do they even sell phonograph needles anymore?)

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    There are audiophiles who still play vinyl. There are also USB turntables which can be used to copy vinyl to .mp3 or other digital format, that I'm sure use needles.

    Sure you can buy needles, and turntables too. I keep saying I'm going to get one to play some of my dozens and dozens of albums, mostly from the 60's to mid-70's! Good old oldies........

    Actually, a geek friend of mine told me one can patch cables from the stereo system into one's computer and record directly!

    Haven't looked into that though - but cheaper than buying a 'copying turntable' and wondering about the quality of it.

    We have one of those turntables you plug into the computer and create computer discs from vinyl. Great thing-we have HUNDREDS of albums!

    Anyway, barkeep, I'd like to join Pom in Champagne all the way to the coast, and how about a slice of that quiche I put on the bar earlier, please? It'd be good with a nice salad for lunch!

    Sure - I'll help out with DJ duty - just so long as the champagne keeps flowing.

    And since we're heading up the beautiful CA coast - how if we start out with an old Beach Boys tune - like California Girls, or a good old one from the Mammas & Pappas - California Dreamin'???

    Feel free to sing along, everyone..........
