Home Stretch

November 26, 2022. Sunset 4:49 PM. Pacheco Pass, CA.

Coming down from the Pacheco Pass into Gilroy. Apparently this is a dangerous piece of road with a nasty history .
We made it and are home now - 3500 miles RT.

Getting our Kicks next to Route 66

November 25, 2022. Sunset 4:34 PM. Ludlow, CA.

Taking our best guess as to time and place along this endless stretch of HWY 40. The old route 66 is just over the hill on the right, running parallel for miles.

Just made it to Kingman in time!

November 24, 2022. Sunset 5:25 pm. Kingman, AZ. Just arrived at the hotel in time for the sunset. We are very grateful to the many people who made this journey possible and for our many blessings-
Much love and Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Shadow Petroglyphs

November 23, 2022.

Making our way home by way of the Petrified National Forest in Arizona- What a beautiful magical world!

Norman walking through the Blue Mesa.

A while later, walking behind Norman as we rounded a bend on our walk through the Petrified Forest, I noticed his shadow cast on a rock across the way.

After recently seeing petroglyphs earlier enroute, this was irresistible.

Sunset 5:06 PM by the Agate Bridge on our way out of the park.

Sunset on Route 66

November 22, 2022. Sunset 4:49 PM. Santa Rosa, New Mexico. Continuing our drive back to California after visiting the Buddy Holly Museum in Lubbock, TX , we had perfect timing to reach the Historic Route 66 right at sunset.
This used to be the way to drive from one end of the US to the other. You can literally see for miles and miles in every direction--
Here are some photos from the Buddy Holly Center!

ON THE ROAD AGAIN

November 21, 2022. Sunset 5:39 PM. Snyder, TX.

Driving through one of many windfarms we've passed today-- this one in Sydney, TX-- on our way to Lubbock for the evening and to the Buddy Holly Museum in the morning.

Texas is really big.
