Road Trip Thoughts On Future (and Past Future) Sites

South seems more and more likely to be the “destination” of our next journey with San Diego, CA as a possible spot to relax for a few days before heading into the overheated desert of the Southwest. Or, possibly as a cool down on the way back. After all, what better way to ease back into reality after the grandeur of the Grand Canyon then to give Z her first surfing lessons on the very same beaches I learned myself?

Yeah, I spent my high school years in north San Diego County, so I could show her the school that made me what I am today (despite my parent’s expectations), wander the beaches I explored in my youth, visit the future site of the world’s first Nickelodeon Resort (built on the site of the Naval Training Center where my father worked while I was in high school), and visit the current site of Legoland (a site I visited when it was a “future site” as well).
