We duck around thru some pretty rural farm country instead-- actually a lot of the observations came on that stretch. & yes, Indian food is the best.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-86670262972548228042009-02-18T06:01:00.000-08:002009-02-18T06:01:00.000-08:00Wonderful sights on your trip.

I do appreciate the gorgeous landscape, but sometimes I miss city living-- spent close to 10 years in San Francisco before moving here.<BR/><BR/>K.: That is a really big benefit in my opinion. As one who loves vegetarian food (without being a strict vegetarian), I'd have to say Indian is my favorite cuisine.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-16397583128809825132009-02-17T07:27:00.000-08:002009-02-17T07:27:00.000-08:00One of the really good side benefits of a career s...One of the really good side benefits of a career spent in the high tech biz is that you find all the good Indian restaurants.
