Your Morning Audio....Gabriola, Not California.

Normally, in even numbered years we head south, by car, to California for a summer holiday.

When there, we spend most of our time in Mendocino County visiting friends, going to beaches, and even playing open-mics.

This summer of course, we couldn't do that so, instead, we spent time on Gabriola Island. The image, above, is of the girls heading down to the beach at Sandwell Provincial Park when we were there last week.

We had a really great time while social distancing from any and all outside our wee pod.

Today's story is backed with the tune 'California Zephyr', which came out of a Jay Farrar and Ben Gibbard collaboration to write songs based on Jack Kerouac's 'Big Sur' a few years ago...






______
In the tune there is a lyric about riding the rails across the great salt flat at daybreak...You can see that, for real....Here.
