The Giants!
I am not much of a car person, but I enjoyed the drive, particularly on the "notoriously steep, windy, and difficult to drive" Generals Hwy inside the Sequoia National Park this weekend.
One travel stereotype is the one who talks only in terms of US Highways, with exquisite road vocabulary that is inscrutable for a newbie, you know the kind who says, "Once you hit SLO on 101, switch to CA 1, then you hit the coast line..."
I am afraid I'm going to become that person. After driving from South to North on the Generals Hwy, in stead of driving back, exit the park with a detour via 245, and drive down the mountains, along the rural side.
