Been planning for months and today was the day to hit the road. I went from Houston up to Conway, TX just east of Amarillo to start the fun stuff at the Bug Ranch off Route 66…and I’ve been on 66 since then. Went through Amarillo, detoured over to the Cadillac Ranch to see the cars. It’s weird…spray paint is so think it’s falling off the cars in foot thick sections…and people paint EVERYTHING. The cars, the fence, the road, the dirt…everything! I’m stopped for the night in a little town staying in a 60’s era hotel on 66. I’ll update with pics every evening but here’s the rest of the plan: Route 66 through New Mexico, Arizona and part of CA. When I hit Cajon Junction I’ll peel up to Angeles Crest Hwy because that’s the most awesome 66 miles anywhere. After that I’ll drop into Pasadena to pick up 66 again out to Santa Monica. I’ll spend some time seeing friends in LA then play in the Malibu canyons on Saturday then Sunday I’ll run PCH up to the newest landslide then detour around to Monterey and drop down into Big Sur…u-turn and end the day in Sunnyvale, CA. I have some stuff to do there but Friday the wife flies in and we’ll head for Fish Camp, CA so we can hit Yosemite first thing Sat morning. We’ll leave there on the east side and stay in Mammoth then cruise down the mountains and through Death Valley on Sunday to Vegas. We have tickets to the Sphere that night then it’ll just be heading home through Phoenix and El Paso. Should be gone 15-16 days. Todays pics.
