Searching for the California Sun

So as I was checking this blog over the past week I noticed a comment by a good friend of mine from days gone by. She referred to a trip we took 4 years ago. We were going to school in Colorado and a group of 4 of us decided to road trip to California for spring break. This was your standard type of road trip where everyone puts $100 into an envelope to cover the cost of gas and then we try and find as many floors and couches we can sleep on for the next few days. (ahhhh youth!)

Of course there were many great memories… and some I would like to forget, but the item my friend mentioned was a delightful late afternoon visit to Applebees. To my recollection we woke up in Palm Springs and hit the road for San Diego. We spent mid-day and early afternoon at Mission Beach. At this point we were kinda hungry but nobody wanted to force his or her own choices upon the group so we started driving. We drove to the San Diego Zoo but decided against that, and we drove some more. Finally, around 3 pm we happened upon an Applebees outside of a mall (just like every other Applebees in the world). What really got us going though was the fact that it was HAPPY HOUR! An hour or 2 later… and many margaritas… we found our way out of Applebees and had to walk around the mall to sober up for our drive to our motel. (ahhhh youth!)
