Road Trip

Oh man, do I have an itch to go road tripping. Sean and I talk about it off and on, but I don't think he realizes how serious I am.
The most feasible trip would be Seattle to LA and back. Since I already have done that route, perhaps we could drive specifically along the coast for this one. Or weave back and forth by hopping on I5 for a bit if we want to stop somewhere in Oregon. There has to be an interesting way to manage it. Since we can't reach the East in our crappy Pontiac we have to think of a way to spruce up our travels around our own coast. I hope those on the East Coast realize how lucky they are to be in such close proximity to interesting destinations; unless you are a nature-lover, you are bound for almost utter boredom in the West.
I'd love to drive alone HWY 1- the Pacific Coast Highway. So pretty. And I think it goes the length of California. Our only issue would be finding places to stay except for Central California, because once we're there we can stay with any of my relatives.
Gas is expensive. That's the biggest hurdle, besides me getting my license :p
Hopefully, this summer, we can manage it. I'd love to spend long car rides next to him, snacking on donuts and other cheap, unhealthy travel food :] Also, going back home is a major motivator. Mythbusters makes me ache with longing for California and sunshine.

Um, yeah. Maybe more to come as far as planning, budgeting and all that.
Cheers :D
