Our Monday started out in Temecula, California, with a first stop just north at Lake Elsinore.

One of my favorite movies is an early 1960s comedy called It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, which had everyone who was anyone in comedy at the time. The movie starts out with a chase scene through the mountains. Our drive to Palm Springs took us along California Highway 74, the same route
