Like countless other Bay Area professionals, my weekdays are spent commuting, working indoors surrounded by solemn people with their music drowning out other people talking loudly on their cell phones.

I fondly remember piling as many friends as possible into one car, getting ready to hit the road on a twelve-plus hour ride for that long-anticipated Spring Break.
