The Bon Voyage Lever



1) The weather changed. It's warmer today, no rain.



2) Plotnik just spoke with The Great PD who was on the phone for an hour this morning with his and 5H's good friends who are in Paris for a year. PD, 5H and J-Belly are planning to vacation with them this Spring. Jeez. An apartment in Paris.



3) The Great BZWZ is leaving for Ethiopia next week. Where she will be this time is a lot remoter than last time. The photos of the local people who live in the North of Ethiopia are stunning.



4) The weather changed. Did Plotnik mention this already?



Put 'em all together, and the Bon Voyage lever got jammed into place this morning, like the ones on the old taxi meters Plotnik used to press down when a customer stepped into his taxicab in the Shmapple. So this morning Plotnik and Ducknik will put together Argentina info, and, just to be sure, Brazil and Japan. Of course, of the three, two are cheap and one is not, no no no no, Japan is not cheap.

Plotnik, however, is.

"What about me?" says Chile. "What about me?" says Bolivia. "What about me?" says the South Pacific.

"Shaddup," says Plotnik. "I need another alpaca sweater."

"What about me?" says Fresno (WAY more my speed).

Like NotThatLucas, my wanderlust is leading me in a direction closer to home. Got any recommendations for a place to stay in Morro Bay?

No, Hanky, never been there. But wasn't that you and Beth in Leah Garchik this morning? Did you think Plotnik would not see all?

Hanky - I've never actually stayed in Morro Bay, but we have stayed in Arroyo Grande and driven there (we were also intent on Pismo Beach). Here is a link to a report about where we stayed:

That's a great area! Better than Fresno even.
