In the midst of a modern plague, I am once again traveling south along the California coast. This is, of course, an imaginary journey. Equipped with the new Mobile Mancave III, Imaginary Mike is currently south of Big Sur, moving slowly toward Santa Barbara.
The coast is at a comfortable daytime temperature, but it is the nighttime temperatures which drive my migration. Living in a van is uncomfortable at temperatures below 48 degrees. The small size of the MMC III does not allow for any auxiliary heating when not connected to electrical power.
As nights cool the drive to move southward increases. It is a leisurely journey, since the destination is not the point. There are many places to see, even with much closed due to the plague.
Unfortunately, this year cannot include a stop at the Disneyland Resort. They will not be open for quite some time. Other places will have to do, and will do.
The Los Angeles area is still far ahead, in miles and days.
