The Great Trip Westward

There is a fairly new term used to make people feel better about not going somewhere for vacation. This term is "staycation." It deserves to stay in quotes because it is otherwise known as "crapcation" or "couchcation" or "ressesication."

While it would have been prudent to save the money, saving the money would have hurt the economy even more than it already is. The three of us flew to Los Angeles, then drove to Ventura (Ryan's birthplace and home of his pop). We went to Santa Barbara, Solvang, Santa Barbara wine country(go Sideways), Santa Monica (go Nathan and Debbie), drove to Flagstaff, the Grand Canyon, and Las Vegas.

This was one of those kind of road trip vacations you only read about on the T.V. We'll post more videos and pictures soon.
