I made a number of cross country trips back in the day including transCanada highway which sadly was a real snooze....Have fun with your stash of road trip ephemera and I hope you'll show us what you make from them. My friend saved all the gas station credit cards receipts from our trip and it is a riot to look at the names of the towns -- and cry over those gas prices.Cappuccinoandartjournal.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11241197153708410602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4179696067342818298.post-60430027539456672162012-12-29T17:40:03.990-08:002012-12-29T17:40:03.990-08:00Thanks, Andria -- if you've hot SF and LA you ...Thanks, Andria -- if you've hot SF and LA you have covered the two best spots -- but the drive along the coast in Hwy 101 is really amazing if you ever get the chance to do that and make some stops along the way.Cappuccinoandartjournal.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11241197153708410602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4179696067342818298.post-79705963342596462342012-12-29T17:38:46.320-08:002012-12-29T17:38:46.320-08:00Hi Rachel--I stayed in Hollywood a couple of night...Hi Rachel--I stayed in Hollywood a couple of nights but sadly I won't be of much help to you. I don't know about any cool paper shops there but the Hollywood Farmers Market is really fun to walk through. I make most all of my mail art from things I pick up for free -- like menus, hand-outs, local free maps etc<br />Have fun in Hollywood and let me know if you find any great shops I've missed there. (Now if you were coming to SF I could tel you about where to go for cool stuff).Cappuccinoandartjournal.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11241197153708410602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4179696067342818298.post-24571459597834533262012-12-29T16:41:57.760-08:002012-12-29T16:41:57.760-08:00I've done virtually no travel in California......I've done virtually no travel in California...just quick trips to LA and San Francisco.

(If I didn't have a job and a kid, I'd be on my way to SF by car in a hearbeat!). I just found a pile of stuff I collected on a cross country roadtrip with my mom in '98. I think we planned to make a commemorative scrapbook and never got a around to it.

Always some veggie addition to even burgers and stuff. Never did go that route, will have to try it some day. Thanks for the views.

I live in Las Vegas but I am from Bakersfield, so I perked up when you mentioned you stopped at a fruit stand there. That's one of the things I miss about California. That and little independent food drive-in's. ~JarieLyn~https://www.blogger.com/profile/02519086938256175022noreply@blogger.com
