I've been to Ca, SF down to Tijuana and back up to LAX, but that was in 1986. It was a great ride.

Stay safe.




I am 90 miles north of Sacramento, SF is quite a ways south of me, was rather strange that there was fog in SF while driving across the Golden Gate Bridge one June.

I have been through New Jersey a few times, visited AC but I also lived there for a while a couple of times. In 1965 I spent the winter in Cape May being hollared at by professionals (USCG boot camp) and I did an extended stay in Elizabeth (Tony Soprano land) in winter/spring 72 with IBM, commuting to 2 Penn Plaza on Amtrak. It is an interesting place but a little cold for me. I understand if you get out in the country it is more like Pennsylvania or central New York.

I have a funny feeling this demand to raise the minimum wage and include tipped workers may end tipping as we know it. Tips were meant to supplement a small basic wage. If that money shows up on the check, people will be less likely to leave tip.
The downside for everyone is there is no way to reward good service over bad service.

John,
I can't help but think that is quite antiquated and set in the 50's-60's when there were less motor vehicles.
