A lot of it is state or federal parkland. There are mountains and deserts too. You can spend the day on the beach swimming in the ocean and go snowboarding that night up in the mountains.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I can't even. That's way too much land. You have a land problem, America.

We need room for our SUVs and guns.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The state of New Jersey is roughly the same size and shape as Israel, but with a river to the west and ocean to the east. It's the fourth-smallest state. (Smaller ones are Hawaii, Delaware, and Rhode Island.)

Shir, I live in San Francisco, which is considered to be Northern California. The actual northern border of the state is about a 5-hour drive.
That's going to be a busy time for me, but I'm finding myself going back and forth to LA more often these days and there's always the possibility that if ND & Pix can't make it, I could do the drive. I love driving that route.

It’s funny--I have the opposite problem whenever I travel to Europe in particular. I look at the map and assume I’d need tons of time to get around and then realize how tiny the country is.

That happened to me planning France and Scotland this past year. You'd think I'd know better by now.

Planning our trip to Ireland and Northern Ireland is hilarious. The WHOLE ISLAND is only 304 miles long! That’s less than the distance between LA and San Francisco!

This is why Javachik and I need to go again, but this time see ALL THE THINGS.

Shir, I filled out the info on the Google doc. Drew and I are excited to drive you from LA to SF (and megan walker, you’re welcome to join us!); we haven’t done it in years, and it’s gorgeous. And we may have to stay overnight at the Madonna Inn: [link] and see Hearst Castle: [link] on the way.
MW recommends both highly.
