It's, what, a 5 hour drive from San Francisco to Eureka?

Takes longer to fly to Las Vegas if you count all the Security Theater and whatnot.

No, it doesn’t. Flying to Vegas is 3 hours all said and done, and $20. For a party of 2 any car under 35mpg would be more expensive, and that’s not counting depreciation. And assuming you even have a car. And you even get unlimited food and drinks at the lounges, if that’s your bag.

Also when you fly to Vegas you end up in Vegas, with about a million things to do. When you drive to Humboldt you end up at a forest, after spending the past 5 hours driving through… forests.
