Hollywood films always inspire me to take road trips. I've made a pilgrimage to the
Amityville house and
Grey Gardens. This trip to the Solvang/Santa Barbara-area was inspired by
Sideways, and didn't require a plane ticket. It doesn't take arm-twisting to get me to leave Los Angeles. I'm always hunched on the springboard, waiting for an opportunity. Pulling away from the city, I can feel the proverbial claws releasing with each mile.
