When we were in CA over Christmas break it took us almost 8 hours to get from La Brea tar pits to El Centro. I know you LA area guys know how to deal with the traffic, but I couldn't live there. The county I live in has one town that has stop lights and no, I don't hear anyone playing a banjo/guitar duet. For the longest time the town had one stoplight. Now it has a few. We are close to Dubuque and Madison if we need anything we can't get locally. We have a national award winning cheese store a few miles away.

Rick the Stick, do you ever have a busy day?

Why would you want to go to El Centro?

I am lucky that I don't have a commute so I can travel off the rush hours. So traffic is usually not too bad for me. I've had more problems with traffic in Santa Barbara when driving home from college on a Friday than I've had in LA, which shows you how much I drive in LA- I try to avoid it. My drive to and from Parade was awesome, though. I saw so much new scenery and drove so many new roads. I took the scenic route and tried to avoid the 101 mostly.
