I just looked at the map you linked and the salvage yard I was thinking of was on the north side of 58 near the bend north before 58 turns west. You can see it, and most of Barstow, from 15.

And I didn't take the time to drive by the salvage yard! Oh well, as time goes by, I realize that there is truth to the old saying that "nothing stays the same"!
I will be waiting to read your story.
We were only allowed to go down in the elevator and was shown the generator floor from the gallery and then whisked right back up on the other set of elevators. That was the total tour that we got at...
I miss the Museum at Victorville. I guess that the building is gone also? We couldn't find it. But I did see that there is still a salvage yard at Barstow. It used to have a LOT of military vehicles...
My wife and i just drove from Indiana to McMinnville, Or. Our destination was the Spruce Goose museum that houses Howard Hughes' airplane. We drove thru 17 states and revisited old haunts as well as...
We just made the same trip in reverse at the end of sept. But we came thru Yellowstone and Mt Rushmore and across I-90. You shouldn't have any trouble on the interstates tho. As long as your car is...
California is a BIG place that has many different types of weather, terrain and people. There is Big Sur, Sand Dunes, Alcatraz, Death Valley, Giant Redwoods, Hollywood and LA. There is no way that...
I'd suggest trading drivers every 2 hours, even tho you won't feel tired. Assuming you both like to drive, neither will get tired/stressed and both can enjoy the trip. You didn't say where you are...
I took my 70 year old Mom to Fla at the end of Feb and had no trouble. The wife and I got back last night from our trip to Fla.
In my opinion, I agree with the previous posters, just use caution...
I was thru Nashville in Feb and again this April 11th. The construction on I-65 North causes horrendous delays. I was going west on I-24 and tried cutting up SR109 east of Nashville. No go. There...
Well in early Mar I took my Mother from W Central Indiana to St. Cloud Fla. Our trip really consisted of the drive down and back and one day in St. Cloud-Kissimmee Fla.
My Mom is now 70 and had...
If you go down the Mississippi and turn a rightie, I'm afraid it will be a VERY long time until you get to Atlanta and I-75! :-) There is Mark Twain's hometown at Hannible, Mo. St. Louis has bar-b-q...

I just took my 70 year old Mom back to Fla for a day! She turned 70 on Sat. We drove down on Friday. Did the tour on Saturday and came home on Sunday. 2092 miles in three days, with time to shop for...
I hope I am wrong, but you sound like you are about to make a BIG mistake! If you are running away, DON"T!! I love the road. But a runaway's life isn't the same as an adventure. As a runawy, you have...
In a little town outside of Portland resides a little known treat: Howard Hugh's 'Spruce Goose'. It is in McMinnville. Just one of millions of possibilities!!
Oh, and if you eat at Allioto's on...
Seriously, you might want to try E-bay.com to check on used RVs. I sold my old '79 Midas mini motorhome for about $3,000.00. It was in pretty fair shape. Of course you are planning on a trip of...
My ole caprice has 240,XXX on it and I am planning on a trip to Fla in a couple of weeks. The thing is that you need to make sure that everything is in as best shape as you can get it. If you have no...
Mulholland drive at midnight, Knotts Berry Farm(daytime), HOLLYWOOD sign, in LA. Try side trips into the mountains to see the REAL Ca. Golden Gate, with Alcatraz, Death vally, Roy Rogers Museum in...
Of course Mi is a BIG state and you might be in the UP. But if (as I assumed) you are in lower Mi, you could drive one day hard going out and be halfway to Ca. But then Ca is also a BIG state. You...
How slow DO you drive? :-) With 9 days, you can go ANYWHERE in the USA and back!! I'm assuming this is your first long distance trip? I'd suggest that you take a couple of day trips to test how...
A week to go from Chicago? In a day and a half you could be high in the Rockies enjoying the winter wonderland. But better make reservations. Many others also know how much fun you can have. There...

I am sympathetic to your problems. But before spending $22,000.00 I think you should have inspected the motorhome a little closer. A 1984 motorhome should be in immaculate condition before you spend...
