Margit Bonacker & Christian Popp

California Highway 1 Road Trip 2024

 On September 29th Patty and I left home and met Margit and Christian (from Germany) in San Francisco, CA for the start of a road trip together that lasted slightly more than 3 weeks. It was a great trip that we all enjoyed. We drove as far north as Bellingham, Washington to visit Patty's first cousin, Laura Kalpakian.  On the way home we stopped and had lunch with Patty's first cousin Linda Thompson Lufkins.  Here are a few of our highlights.
