LA Day-Day 39

Another fine day for temperatures as the low and high were 62F to 75F respectively for the day.  There was a great deal of fog/smog to contend with, however.  I purchased gasoline twice during the day both at $4.399/gallon.  It seems the gasoline prices are doing just the opposite of the sun, rising in the West while lowering in the East.  It was another beautiful drive, or should I have said chauffeured, down the west coast along Route 101 from San Luis Obispo to Los Angeles, California.  We were traveling at the right time as traffic was really not too bad until we reached LA.  I really believe there is no good time for driving in LA.  We left early for the game so as to stop in at the Griffith Observatory, a real neat place.  It would have been an even greater day had the Cards won, but still a good day.  I am sorry that my navigator, chauffeur, trip adviser, companion, and just an all around good guy is leaving to head back East.  I am pretty sure that he had as good as time as I did while he was here, though.  My plans for today are to start my travel East, possibly stop in Joshua Tree National Park, and then head for Arizona as the Grand Canyon beckons my call.
I will get back to my nightly posting again.
