The altimeter will read 4500 feet when we stop for lunch at Pine Hills Lodge just outside Julian.   But WOW…. getting there we’ll get even higher. We’ll taste Rainbow, Rice and Couser Canyont and that’s just a warm-up.  Suddenly there’s Lilac Road, and then we’ll climb S6 almost to Mt. Palomar, and sail down S7 with breathtaking views of Lake Henshaw. Then we’re thrust onto the exhilarating Mesa Grande known to many car clubs for its series of hairpins turns. Finally we’ll be able to breathe as we cruise toward a buffet luncheon at the Pine Hills Lodge. At the Lodge, we’ll have time to visit with old friends and meet new ones, recounting our experiences along the road to Julian.
