Road tripping

After being rescheduled a couple of times I am on a road trip with my cousin Linda.

I like Linda. There are some very marked differences in our personalities. She is a type that likes to be in control and I have become more laid back. When we met up to start this I tossed her the key and she has done all the driving. 

She is Conservative but eats like someone who would be a member of the Green Party. Little if any meat, lots of fruit and salads. When we started off I asked her to swing through the drive through at McDonald’s for a couple of Egg McMuffins. This caused a minor clash as she did not want them in the car nor did she want me subjecting myself to that level of food. I was not trying to cause dissension, I actually like a Sausage McMuffin without the egg which I do not eat often. Crisis averted, I got my breakfast.

So far this has been fun. We get along well. I think she is okay with my total lack of planning and fondness to stopping at random places versus her need to plan in detail. We stopped at a few wineries that she had been to before. I have been to wine tastings but never to an actual winery. She likes white, I prefer red. I will have to convert her to the dark side. The nice thing about neither of us working is that we are in no rush to be anywhere.
