I was about halfway through my Double Double at Firestone Brewery in Paso Robles when the bartender came over to my table and asked if I drove a black Toyota Corolla.

The beer you have after you’ve changed a flat in the rain – now that’s a good beer.

Firestone is an awfully nice place, though.  I was in such a relaxed and pleasant mood that changing the flat was just another adventure, another story to tell.

I think Pismo Beach contributed to that feeling as well – I’ve grown quite found of California’s Central Coast scenery.

Despite mostly cloudy skies and on-and-off rain, I managed to get some good pictures.

I will post tomorrow.
