It all started with an email to Jeff in February. "Im booking a spot in Yosemite for June, you in?". The cali trip was born. It consisted of a few parts, coming into Solona beach to party w/ Jeff and Mike, rent a Mustang. Bounce out to LA, where my cousin was going to fly in and drive the PCH w/ me, with two stops in Big Sur. Cap that off with a stop in Jeffs old stomping ground, Santa Cruz and party w/ some of his friends. Day in Napa boozing. Then Pete flew in for the last two legs of the trip, Yosemite and San Fran! For everyone that knows me, Cali is my favorite place in the world.
I dont remember much of Solona beach, I think shit got hairy after a few jager bombs, I do remember setting a record of some sort, which stayed a few weeks after I left.
Dmitriy and I left LA early in the morning. Driving the PCH is all that and more, the views and Big Sur are f--ing amazing! We stayed two nights in Big Sur, and could have stayed more, it is the most beuatiful spot in the world. We literally pulled over every few minutes and took pictures and took in the scenery. Santa Cruz was a blur, we chilled w/ Aaron and the boys and had a great time.
Next day we ventured out to Napa and drank wine all day, it was my second time there. It is the quintessential California. Blue skys, 70 degree weather and you are getting fucked up all day. All I remember is Dmitriy making a scene that we went to Robert Mondavi winery, he said "IM not drinking any fucking Merlot"!
Dmitriy bounced and Pete came in, exchanged one for the other at SF airport, and bounced out to Yosemite. Pictures improved as Pete brought the big daddy camera. Yosemite is what they say and more, it is def one of the most beautiful places in the world. The valley when viewed from the top is amazing. I visited the official beginning of the John Muir trail, this is a journey that I must someday take.I saw my spirit animal at the top of the world there, a lone wolf. Little did I know I had a lesson waiting for me back home. Tess broke up with me, after picking me up at the airport. It was the biggest heartbreak I have ever felt, there was a life changing lesson there, that I remember every day.
Pete and I had a blast in SF, and had a lot of great conversation. I loved every minute of my trip, love the people I was able to do it with and the lessons that it brought.
