I'm counting the days until I board a plane in Madison, WI bound for Portland, OR. After a few days visiting my cousin, I'll be southward bound in a tiny car (probably a Chevy Aveo, if my history and my luck holds - love those little suckers) on the highway, heading toward California State Highway 1, the ocean, and about 3 weeks of solitude sprinkled with sociable stops along the way. This will be my first solo road trip (if you don't count a 10-hour drive to Martin, TN). It will also be my longest vacation away from home and the first time I'll drive down this highway. And I can't think of a better way to clear my head and fill my tummy than eating and drinking my way down one of the country's most beautiful highways from Portland to Carmel-by-the-Sea.
