Love Drive

A little while after I had bought the Sky, I was feeling a little antsy to take her out for a spin. I got my sweetie, dropped the top, and we were off.

In the immortal words of Chuck Berry, we had no particular place to go!!!

I drove us on surface streets over to the north edge of Griffith Park, and cruised right on through!!!

You couldn't ask for a better day for top down cruising!!!

As we passed the far side of Griffith Park and were heading into Universal City, I turned us off into a hilly residential area to get us turned around and head back.

With the pipes and the radio blasting, my sweetie says, “I think we're disturbing the peace!!!”

Around a month later, we've got our anniversary coming up. We've got a couple nights booked in Palm Springs. I had been planning on taking the Matrix, but she says, “We should take the Sky!!!”

She has some difficulty getting in and out of the Sky, as she has mobility issues, and the Sky sits low, and I thought she'd have an easier time with the Matrix. I asked if she was sure, and she was all for it, so we packed light, and away we go!!!

On the way out, we stopped in at Morongo again, because there's a Wahlburger's there, and we really liked it when we had it last year.

Gotta have some dessert afterwards, right??? I saw a place called Monster Shakes not far from where we were staying, and after I saw the pictures, we had to have it!!!

The next day, after a late breakfast, we dropped the top (now that we had the luggage unloaded) and headed over to the Aerial Tram. As we got higher into the shadows of the mountains, it cooled down considerably, and having the top down didn't seem like it was such a great idea anymore!!!

Good times!!!
