Somewhere near Ventino but what state?

Day Two and the day started with a little surprise. I had spent the night in the upper bunk, much to the bewilderment of my car attendant, Reggie. I woke many times during the night. Not because I was necessarily uncomfortable, but more because I didn't want to miss anything. I kept looking for daylight. Finally I could see the sun coming up. I unhooked the straps that were supposed to catch me if we had any crazy rocking during the night. Then I tried as gracefully as possible to climb down. I have to say it was MUCH easier getting up than it was getting down. But what was the suprise you might ask. Well, as most people, the first action upon waking involves finding the toilet. And, due to a tip I found online, I have made it my habit to always go to the ones downstairs. I tiptoed as quietly as I could since it appeared that everyone else was still sleeping. Apparently I was successful. Not even Reggie heard me, which, unfortunately for him, meant that I surprised him as he stood
