Improviso and I will be taking our greatly anticipated trip west beginning tomorrow. :sombrero: This is our route to the final western destination, the Grand Canyon.

When we leave, we'll be taking the drivable portions of Rt. 66 east from Winslow to the Cadillac Ranch, stopping overnight in Old Town Albuquerque and in Amarillo, then drop by OKC overnight to meet JBryan, his wife Ruyan and the bluejay, then reluctantly wander on home.

We were hoping to meet Rick (chickgrand) too but have not heard from him, so guess that won't happen. :sad: Larry never answered my PM regarding a stop in Sweetwater to meet him. He must be too busy with his new girlfriend to meet a couple of old farts like us. Posted Image

Nina, Matt and others who gave us recommendations and advice about this trip - thank you! By the time we get home, we'll have driven about 4,500 miles! We'll be sure to bombard you with pictures (the cyber equivalent of a hellish slideshow at our home) on our return! Posted Image

So see ya next month everyone! :wave:

I love those kind of trips. Enjoy. We'll miss you both.

The founding of the bulk of the world's nation states post 1914 is based on self-defined nationalisms. The bulk of those national movements involve territory that was ethnically mixed. The foundation of many of those nation states involved population movements in the aftermath. When the only one that is repeatedly held up as unjust and unjustifiable is the Zionist project, the term anti-semitism may very well be appropriate. - P*D

We will try to check in whenever we have internet access.

I just now discovered one more reason why I am so happy to be empty-nested. I went to get my white Nikes to pack and they are nowhere to be found. 22 yr. old has a bad habit of "borrowing" things from me without ever returning them. Now I am forced to go buy and break in on this trip (ouch! :o ) a new pair of Nikes.

plays: sizzling...and it isn't from the heat! :smokin:

Plays, I must have missed your PM somehow. I apologize. I'd have loved to have met you both. This was the first I knew of this.

Drink lots of water when you get out to Arizona - heat warnings for the San Diego county deserts for tomorrow - they are forecasting 115 to 124 degrees with a slight cooling on Tuesday, so I'm sure Arizona is going to be hot too.
