Cars with Yakima cases

   It was summer here in San Francisco, California, when I originally wrote the draft to this blog entry. It feels like that time of year here now, in late February, as it's about sixty five degrees. During the summer here children are on school break, adults are often taking time off from work, and many people are making sure their Yakima cases are securely fastened on top of their cars before heading out for that drive to go biking, hiking or camping.
