My usual Sunday Drive (sometimes on Saturday) is right off a Beach Boys album. Head down to San Clemente or Doheney Beach, drive north through the Dana Point Harbor to stop and read for a while as the sailboats go past, then up PCH through Laguna Beach (probably one of the most beautiful beach cities ever...the city is known for its arts/gay-friendly lifestyle, so every view is either flower-filled, or some artsy architecture...plus blue ocean coves), and then it's north through Newport Beach and Balboa Island where I stop and take the Ferry across to the "Fun Zone" (the 3-car Ferry is always good for showing off the XF to admirers) and then up through Surf City (Huntington Beach) and finally to Sunset Beach, when I turn around and take PCH in a straight shot to Laguna Canyon and head back inland to home. It's weird to be reminded that I live 20 minutes from such amazing vacation destinations.

You're all invited to join me anytime...and you can visit the original Mouse House just up the road in Anaheim, as well!
