LOL! I am so excited. A friend of mine offered to take me to visit her family in CA. I guess that they live on the water, around San Diego. Weeee!!

One thing, though, I have never been on a plane. I know, I know.. I have also never been further from home, than.. Ohio.

Any advice on what to do or not to do there? I know that we have some plans to go dune buggying around Yuma, and she wants to go to LA for a day. I am just so excited, and so nervous, because it will be like going to another planet for me! I really don't like western NY that much, and hell, when I went to Columbus, I wanted to stay! So who knows when I see Cali, lol. My husband is going too.. he has been allllllll over as a roadie in the past. He said that he would not be against moving anywhere; neither would I. Any advice, also, on dealing with my first flight? I am sort of nervous (we recently had that tragic plane crash in our area, in Clarence, that was all over the media.) But I figure, if I drive myself daily on roads at 75 mph, in a tin-can Jeep, then flying HAS to be safer than that.. and I do that daily.

I am sort of OK in Spanish speaking and understanding. Not fluent. I can usually understand more than I can respond, but I know basic stuff.
I really cannot wait to have some authentic Mexican food. I am fiending for some good guacamole. So how is it? Am I never going to want to go home??

Also, how is the weather in summer? Is it really that horribly hot, or tolerable? Anything and everything that you can think of, please do tell!
