Route 66, as far as it will let you travel, and San Diego is a wonderful destination, although there is this Wife of Mike problem down there

You could come to San Diego from the East (Vegas) Via HWY'S 215/15 coming thru Temecula Valley/ Wine Country

Going north via Coast line you run into South Orange County..........more of the same stuff only More ritzy neighborhoods
You can almost take 5 North the entire State.... or 101 coast Hwy for a better Ocean View
keep going & your into Orange County- Disneyland, Knott's berry Farms,
Hollywood, Malibu, Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive............now your talking RICH & FAMOUS
Keep going......... Santa Barbara.....wine country, Mammoth Mountain
I just got back from both Vegas (Palazzo/ Venetian Hotels are 5 star but not the price and FAB)
and Hearst Castle runs (we spent 1 1/2 days at castle doing ALL of their tours... then another 1/2 driving further north up outrageous mountains with coastline views as far as your eyes could see
You've got the Redwoods, Big Sur Mountains, and a whole lotta green mountains up there
Heading towards Wine Country, San Francisco, Saucilito.......... Alcatraz (don't stay there)
keep going and Sacramento (not my cup of tea)
hmmmmmmmmm.... Lots to see here..........This is a good start
But I DO LURK HERE..... .... so warning... ....ForceOfNature, BadAssWife, "OH HER" IS on the loose
