I'm up for the caravan idea, but there might be folks who join/end at different places. Between our cell phones, and a general idea of meeting in Santa Monica at 8am, Cambria at 1pm, and Big Sur at noon, we all should be able to find each other along with way, without cramping anyone's schedule.
What do you think?
Diane - It AZ's trip - but I agree with your schedule. I feel this really gives us a little more time - and also some time for "visiting" each other.
AZ - any way your plans can be altered? :?:
