Default Hi from Silicon Valley!

San Jose, to be exact!

I'm the new proud owner of a beautiful 2012 XF. It's my first Jag, and I couldn't be happier with the decision to get it.

I just recently moved to the area, so I decided to take a trip down to Santa Cruz. The winding curves of Rt. 17 were an absolute blast.

Thanks chernobee!

Driving down to Santa Cruz was a total impulse decision. (I moved here late last year and haven't had a car since moving out!) The drive down was a lot of fun. The sharp turns/blind corners definitely keep you alert! Coming back up, I hit a lot of beach traffic, but the ride was so comfortable I totally didn't mind! Next week, I'm heading out to Livermore. I've got a lot of exploring to do!

Thanks again

The hills around Livermore are beautiful in the spring. They are all green and grassy. I bet that's where the milk people take the pictures of the happy cows in the fields.

@ J79 do you know about Hicks road? that is a fun one and local. Take Camden Ave south, then make a right on hicks road. Imagine a miniture hwy17, 2 lane, but with no traffic! Starts in South San Jose and will take you into Los Gatos
