All of the above photos were taken with my point and shoot camera from the car window. We were just passing through the Central Valley in California, headed towards Woodland. Indeed, it is an enormous valley, with tons of grape vineyards, nut groves, and cattle. The only thing that is missing is water and the lack of it.

"The next time you take off on a family trip, why not take a covered wagon instead of a car? Or do a bike tour, with no car involved? You could even go on foot and have a llama carry your stuff for you."-- 101 things you gotta do before you're 12! Joanne O'Sullivan
Some Inspiration For Your Vacation:
1. LLAMA TREK

Next road trip, when I'm not on a time crunch, I think I'll step outside the car and take some photos with the Nikon D200! lol
