Glad you are figuring how to add the larger photos! Makes it so much easier for member and casual visitors to see your...

Your photos really bring the Festivals to life!

Remarkably, it was snowing heavily three different times in Kirkwood on the 12th of May.

And it was COOL in Death Valley on the 12th! Temps in the middle 70's--almost unheard of.

Still...

Another week of heavy truck traffic draws nigh.

Rick,

Great report--as always--and the photos are very cool.

I am not sure why this is, but for some peculiar reason this task has fallen on my plate several times over the years! ...

All ready to go start truckin' again on Monday morning.

Such things happen to all of us--sooner or later. On this trip upcoming, I have a couple 500+ mile days, and I ALWAYS prefer to drive no more than 350 miles per day. But the reality is on a 6,000...

I agree that 651 miles is a bit long for the first day. And I agree with your choices.

For the trip I am doing in July, our first night's stop is Gallup, but we are four hours further east than...

Well, that is surprising-to say the least.

Snow levels on the road is still impressive.

Donna,

Great idea to repost your moving report since the OP from this thread is going through a similar transition.

Here is part of Donna's post from that trip (I hope FARKARC takes time to...

It is really is incredible to have this cooling trend.

I had to wear a jacket today when I practiced Yoga in the park. I have never seen such chilly weather this time of year before in Las Vegas....

Yep, George is correct. They are heading east-bound under a full head of steam.

So staying on the eastern side of town makes the most sense.

One thing I would suggest is to take an extra hour...

Nope, that made total sense. I was referring to the fact that you listed the mileage for this adventure to be 5200 miles -- when it is actually 2600 and so I wondered if you were going both...

Congratulations on the recent marriage and the trip to Raleigh!

.
It is actually about 2600 miles one-way -- are you making a round trip of it?

I can guarantee you that you won't be able to...

Wow, a chance of decent snow on Saturday and Sunday.

That is a bit of a surprise. And the low for the valley on Sunday is 15 degrees F. (brrrr!)

Mark

Fred,

Thanks for the kudos and we hope we continue to be helpful to you!

I had to look up where Providence Village was. I thought, (after editing the Urban Fly Fishing Dallas--Fort Worth book...

The Rocks are Back!

Wow, this is melting so fast!

Pensacola might be on your route -- but 1100 miles over two days is a rockin' speed.

By the way, you could spend a couple of hours driving along the beach highway before rocketing back to speed...

I also love "Nowhere" spelled "Now Here" for similar reasons. But I surely like the quote you shared.

Mark

Wow, that seems like an incredible bargain. Hope you have a fun trip.

One thing that could be delaying the start of plowing on the Yosemite NP side, is that there could have been firings and layoffs, courtesy of the Federal government. We know that several thousand...

I had never heard of this, so, of course I wanted to know more. It is similar to the Tioga Pass Prognosticator Challenge!
