That sounds great. I love the idea of riding Amtrak, you'll get to see so much of the country. I have fond memories of riding the train with my Mom to visit her family in Georgia.
Wishing you a nice trip and enjoy getting to know your neighbors. Cheers!
Hope the move goes well, do you have relatives there? It is going to be a big change, culture there is not like California at all. I have relatives in Georgia and I love going to see them but it takes me time to adjust when I am there.
