In the summer of 2003, Charlotte and I decided to take a trip across the country by rental car (why a rental? Don't ask--it's complicated, dull, and annoying.), stopping at various friends along the way, seeing the sights, and culminating in our annual visit to the Burningman festival in Nevada. This is the diary we kept along the way.

Avocado with spicy sunflower seeds turns out to be a very satisfying combination. The salty crunch of the seeds nicely compliments the creamyness of the avocado.
Puncture your avocado half several times with a fork, sprinkle on some lime juice (avocados are 89¢ and limes are a dime at Garlic World), and fill the pit pit with yer sunflower seeds. Dig in.
