The Van- Part II

        After making the 300 mile trek last night from Santa Cruz to Santa Barbara I'm reasonably convinced that the Econoline is cut out for the journey. It pulls eighty m.p.h on the freeway with no problems and has enough stereo wattage to drown out the incessent humming charecterstic of a cargo van without adeqaute sound deadening insulation.

        I hadn't seen AJ, my travel partner, in a few months since he's been working in Idaho all Summer. It's great to see him and his girlfriend Annick, they're both very close friends who seem to always make me laugh with their unsolicited antics. We're going to do some more prep work to today and finish packing the van so we can hit the road first thing tomorrow morning.
