It is actually more than a week ago since I left Seattle but I just now thought that it might be a good idea to give a weekly itinerary of my travels. No deep thoughts just where I have been and things I have seen.
March 21,2007: Seattle to Roseburg, OR – all freeways with daffodils! A night spent at the Shady Grove Inn.
March 22, 2007: Roseburg to Mountain View CA to visit with parents of a close friend. A stop at the Olive Pit in Corning Ca and that stop at the Easy St. exit.
March 23,2007: Mountain View, CA- A visit to Santa Clara University to see the most beautiful Wisteria in bloom and lunch with a friend from High School.
March 24, 2007: Mountain View to San Luis Obispo, CA. Walked the town and enjoyed the central Valley.
March 25, 2007: San Luis Obispo to Victorville, CA. I bid the Pacific Ocean goodbye, saw vineyards and orange groves and entered the desert area between San Bernardino and Barstow.
March 26,2007: Victorville to Las Vegas, NV. Drove through Baker with the world’s largest thermometer. Saw the LV strip at night.
March 27,2007: Las Vegas: Walked miles through casinos, lost $10.00 playing slots. It was the coldest day they had had in months – it even rained! Lots of strange folks and one Elvis impersonator!
March 28,2007: Las Vegas to Williams, AZ. I didn’t to go Zion like I had planned – they had 8 inches of snow! Saw Hoover Dam and drove historic Rt. 66 from Kingman to Williams, AZ
March 29, 2007: Williams to Grand Canyon to Sedona, AZ. It was 22 degrees when I got up! The Grand Canyon was just that, grand. Saw three California great condors soaring over the canyon – amazing. It blizzard snowed all the way to Flagstaff and south almost to Sedona.
March 30,2007: Sedona, AZ. Beautiful red rocks. Got a massage and listened to a timeshare pitch for a cheap hotel room rate. Sun was back though not very warm yet.
That’s the trip so far. I think I have hit a rhythm that works. I’ve met different folks and enjoyed the views so much. Next week will be mostly Bisbee, AZ a place I may want to live in someday.

I would have checked out Shamrock/Easy Street exit too. You just never know who/what you might find. Glad you have the company of your Peeps - me, I only listen to what my Rice Krispies tell me. I'm sure you've run out of Daffodils by now but you should be into the Texas Blue Bonnets soon. Enjoy and and thanks for the posts.
