Full tank of petrol, targa top removed, twisties on highway 84 in Woodside, CA. with Led Zeppelin & The Doors playing from the Alpine.... Oh yeah.... hit 100,000 miles too. Awesome day for a cruise through the mountains to the beach. 200,000 miles, here I come!

That's right where I grew up, at Skyline and Hwy 84. I've put a lot of miles on that stretch of road.

A 100k youngster.

BTW, are there vikings in the Bay area ? I thought most Scandinavian ancestors inhabited other parts of America.

I finally hit puberty at 134,000. Starting to get some scuffs under the chin.

Well, I'm here too. It's not like Minnesota, but go to the monthly Swedish church service in San Francisco and Swedish people come out of the woodworks. The local IKEA is another place for Swede spotting.

My grandfather left Sweden, and went right past MN and landed in San Francisco. I guess he'd had enough snow.
