We are planning a major trip to California where I never been.  To San Francisco to be more exact.  We are going there by train.  I am getting a bit frustrated for I have not been given the go-ahead to make the train reservations.

Then I can do every thing else, arrange the car rental, the plane home and every thing in between.  But it that the first step–the train reservation.

I have never been to California.  I have been wanting to visit San Francisco for over forty years.  And the redwoods and take a ride down or up the coast.  And maybe stick my toes in the Pacific which I have never seen.

We love trains.  So we are looking forward to the forty eight plus hour ride.  But I am still waiting to take that first step–make the train reservation.  Everything else will follow.
