June 19 (Today): Capitol Corridor RT (Martinez -> Great America). The CCJPA hosted a "rider appreciation day" with a summer beach theme on train 544 on my way home between Great America and Emeryville. There were free snacks (cheese, crackers, cookies, fruit, etc), a free raffle (in which I won a gift certificate for free Haagan Daaz ice cream), beach music, and free gifts (CC pencils, coffee mugs, pins, etc). LOTS of fun, esp. after a hot and exhausting day at the amusement park.
June 21: Capitol Corridor RT (Martinez -> Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk).
June 23: San Joaquin OW (Martinez -> Las Vegas via thruway from Bakersfield)
June 26: San Joaquin OW (Las Vegas -> Martinez via thruway to Bakersfield)
June 30: Coast StarLATE OW (Martinez -> Simi Valley) I might do this trip on the San Joaquin if the Starlate is running too late - we'll just have to wait to see.

High school is finally over!
