Howard's Decker Canyon Road Video, Southern California? Options

[abbott295]

I don't spend a lot of time here and didn't know if I had come across Howard before, but I was reading through all the messages of remembrance about him and someone had posted a link to the Decker Canyon Road video. I had seen that and commented on it at the time. I guess I knew Howard and will miss him not being around.

I will be in Southern California this week, arriving Wed. and leaving Sun. I (and my wife and 3 year old grandson) will be there because we have two sons in Drum and Bugle Corps Championships which will be happening in Pasadena at the Rose Bowl.

We won't be having a lot of spare time and don't know our way around and I hadn't even figured on asking about possibilties of what to do while out there, but the video makes me ask, "Would it be doable?' in honor of Howard.

Also have to get to a beach, Pacific ocean. But is that road anywhere close enough to LA/Pasdena to do in a short morning?

My wife and a brother-in-law saw the video and both thought it was in Guatemala. The landscape and road look like one we know there.

Thanks all.

Regards, Alfred

Thank you, guys. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now it's up to me to work this in. Apparently one of the boys is in San Diego, apparently in the opposite direction. Don't know yet where the other one is. I have to rent a car yet. Two years ago in Boston, we had a Chevy Aveo. Really wasn't a bad car, but it's no 914.
