Today's stats
Temperature - low 15 high 33
Weather - Sunny
Miles traveled - 220
It's going to be hot today so an early start it is. Breakfast at 7:30 and wheels up at 8:00 (ok 8:30). Palm Springs is our destination and a nice hot tub awaits us there, so like the horse nearing the barn, we hope to make some time today. Before we start though, we have to get that iconic photograph of us standing on the highway (traffic is light so what the heck).
This is pretty much all we say all day.
Not sure it gets any better with us in the photo
There was virtually no traffic on this road which made for a very nice ride but you sure would not want to break down here.
Eventually we made it to civilization and had lunch at Route 62 Diner, which is of course is a take off on Route 66 but this is the highway that gets us home today.
And home is was after lunch. A few more miles, a drive through Palm Springs and finally making it to Jack’s place in Rancho Mirage.
Jack is actually in this picture. That is is hand at the left (sorry Jack).
So the trip is over and we all made it safe. To the pool to cool off and then to dinner (you’ve probably noticed a lot of our focus on our trips are around restaurants)
And this is no exception, to Morton’s we go for that end of the road steak.
Although this is the end of the road it is not the end of the blog. I have one more entry for tomorrow where I introduce the group and post some closing thoughts. See you tomorrow.
