On the road again. A dear, dear friend of mine died in her sleep Saturday morning. Age 54. She was an only child and her parents had both already died so, as her best friend, I'm it. I checked out flight options but decided to try the road. So far, I've only gone about 50 miles and am at my first planned Starbucks stop in Livermore. It's raining lightly. In Livermore, CA right now and heading towards I-5 South down to Bakersfield and then over to the border to Needles, CA. I'm thinking a cheap night's stay might be good. Already checked and hotels.com says there are lots of vacancies. Just checked my email and replied to a couple. I'm testing to see just how much I can be in motion and still run my business. Will let you know. Running Panther on my trusty Titanium 800 Powerbook with a MacWireless 802.11g card. I surfed the Starbucks.com site last night and found that it has one weakness. You can only search by city or zip. What I need is to specify I-5 and say, show me the Starbucks stops along the way with the exits and perhaps exit numbers. Would be very cool. Gotta get back to the road...
