Here's the itinerary for the drive.

10:00 a.m meet at the Shell station at I-5 and Encinitas Blvd. (northwest corner).
10:15: Leave for Julian, stopping at Dudley's, arriving for lunch in Julian around 12:00.
1:00: Leave for Pine Valley via Sunrise Hwy., arriving for the last hour of the "Run to the Hills" car show.

Total round trip is a little less than 160 miles, and 5 1/2 hours.

This is a TERRIFIC drive with lots of fun road, places to stop and great scenery plus a car show at the end! DO NOT miss this one! BigAl 327 and I made this run last year. Definitely worth repeating.

The fuel bill was a bit much for me also.

Yeah, I hear you. Mine was $120.00.
Just under 16 mpg. Not too bad for 3000 rpm the whole way!

BigAl..... it's definitely on for tomorrow.
