Almost home

well, our time on the road this trip is coming to an end.

Breakfast in St. George, Utah (I really like that place), lunch in Nevada (skipped through Las Vegas - that's for another time), and supper in Victorville, California. We considered pushing on home (briefly) and decided we've been there, done that. Downtown Victorville was a disappointment. There had been an attempt to revitalize at some point with trees and new curbs and paving. But the storefronts are now very empty. It's on the original Route 66 and ends at the Amtrak/Greyhound terminals but there is no parking and no residential areas around there. It's interesting that some areas have the resources (people with foresight and connections to people who can help get things done) and other areas present more challenges.

We went for our walk, relaxed in the hot tub, Don is now sitting outside (it's been hot - no more snow to enjoy) watching the wind whip around the trees (reminiscent of living in Palmdale) while I struggle with this teeny-tiny keyboard.

I'm hoping for a Mexican breakfast tomorrow (the hotel "free" breakfasts are pretty consistent) then leisurely ride home. It's been an enjoyable two weeks.
