Last road trip in USA for me… tomorrow we’re heading home!

The last trip, drove from Los Angeles to Arizona and from there back to the bay area for flying home…

The reason of this last road trip was to see my friend Chris from US Autobarn fame… (remember the BIG junkyard? That was Chris’) Chris is ill and only God knows how long he will be longer with us… a last visit was so appropriate and I left LA on Wednesday afternoon right before Thanks giving, Probably I don’t have to tell You traffic was a mess, a big mess, It took me 5 hrs to Barstow something i can do normally in 1 hr 45 mins…. sjeez!

I like to drive in the desert and sunrise in the desert is very special, always! I enjoyed a real nice one on Hwy 40 going east… this is like the old route 66…

So the last thing to do for me when I was back in the bay area was loading up my trailer… full size trailer for a half a bus!…:)
