Cancelled Roadtrip

I've in the back of my mind been planning the true Southwestern roadtrip for quite some time. I think close to 10-15 years. Leaving SF heading down on the beautiful Pacific Highway in a fast sportscar, top down. Stopping in quaint places such as Santa Cruz (visit buddy Joe), Carmel (Bernardos Lodge) and then further down, passing the Big Sur and Santa Barbara. Maybe make a sideways trip to the wine country there before hitting Los Angeles.

After a few days on the coastal route we would turn 90 degrees and head east to Palm Springs and then to Tucsan for Mexican food, golf and desert. From Tucsan we would go to Phoenix (visit buddy Jaan w/ wife) and then Vegas, baby, to try out my new Texas Hold 'em skills.

After all the fear and loathing Death Valley sounds like the right destination and then up through Yosemite and back to San Francisco. I'd say the perfect fall trip but it doesn't look like we'll make it this year.
