1st Day on the Road: Cindy's Perspective

We were packed and on the road at the ungodly hour of 5:00 am bright and early this morning in an effort to beat the hellish temperatures of Yuma in the summer.  It's always disconcerting when you feel "road melt" sicking to your car tires.   Fortunately, the road does not start melting in Yuma until after 10:00 am and by that time we were long gone.  Smart us!  I'm fighting the urge to feel self-righteous.

We arrived safe and sound in Carlsbad at 11:30 am.  We had a beer, went to lunch and had a few beers, watched the soccer game, had a few beers, came back to the condo, and went to happy hour.   Geez there's a scary pattern emerging here and I have completely lost my urge to feel self-righteous.

Would love to write more but the day has been exhausting.

P.S.  Cheech is getting ready for bed and wants to recharge his phone.  He is diligently working to untangle the wire ball he packed.   Just sayin'
