So After 3 very long days we have arrived in California. Our journey is cataloged below...
January 1st - Left Memphis, TN, drove through Arkansas, stopped for dinner in Texarkana, spent night in Mt. Pleasant, TX
My pitiful attempt at taking a picture of the Texas state line
Day 2 - Left a 6:45 am, stopped in Arlington to visit, Abilene to eat lunch and El Paso for dinner, and finally arrived in Benson, Az at 11:30 pm (MST). 18 hrs of driving and lots of crazy things seen along the way.
Cowboy's Stadium
Our tire getting patched in Arlington
Windmills in Texas, Yippee for Green Energy, plus they were pretty
Finally in Sunny California!!
The little black specks are dune buggies zooming up and down the sand dunes, there was some big gathering of them
Sunset over the San Diego Harbor
