Are We There Yet ???? Pea Soup Anderson's

Driving, driving, driving...................

We drove from San Francisco to San Diego, and then back.............

Mostly it's all on the same road - the famous I-5, or, as it is known in Los Angeles, "THE FIVE"...  through California's Great Central Valley... that feeds all of America...

Productive - yes... Interesting?  Well, not so much.

BUT THEN - - a sign - -

50 miles to PEA SOUP ANDERSON'S  .....  well, wowee, why didn't you tell me?

25 miles..................10 miles....  and then, finally.................

Actually, believe it or not, its a CHAIN - - a PEA SOUP CHAIN !!!!

 And, as the placemat assures you, there's one near you !

 

 

So - what do they sell?

 

Well, according to Wikipedia, they sell 500-600 GALLONS of split pea soup DAILY !!!!

 

YOWEE.........

 

and a whole bunch more 'comfort' foods.

 

And outside there's a big windmill you can see from far away................

 

The soup............................ green, isn't it?

 the obligatory 'kitschy' stuff:

 The "pea" jokes:

 

 

 

 

SO - YOU MIGHT ASK - DID WE EAT PEA SOUP ?

 

WELL, ACTUALLY,

 

WE USED THE RESTROOMS AND HEADED UP THE ROAD...........

 

AND I WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY "PEA PEE"   JOKES !!

 

'TIL NEXT TIME - THEN WE WILL SHOW UP HUNGRY
