1. Go to Goodwill 2. Start a Band

When we consider spring break vacation spots, I like to see if there are any Goodwill stores near possible hotels. Google Maps makes this very easy.

Here's a Goodwill in California.

Let's go in.

Holy cow! Look at how many guitars they have! There are three racks full? Does GW stand Guitar World?

They also have a percussion section. Check out those Peavey amplifiers towards the back of the picture.

Okay, these pictures were taken in July of 2013, so none of these instruments are going to be there now. Still, this might be the tipping point on picking California as a vacation spot.

Admission: I can't play the guitar or the drums, so there really isn't any reason these pictures should make us choose to go to San Francisco. There also isn't any reason for me to already own two guitars from Goodwill. 

But I do.
