ROAD CREW

Looking at my calendar this morning I realized that today, March 22nd, I scheduled to be the last day of this trip. I laughed at myself though, because the first thing that came to my mind this morning was "Where to next?". I'm not even really done with the trip I just got back from, yet I am ready to keep on keepin' on. I think that if I could afford it I would be on the road until I was in the mud. R.I.P. Just sayin'.

I want to see it, I want to experience it, I want to know it.
Somewhere, anywhere, always and forever.

Enter the Grape Vine, I-5 North.

Cranzig is a monster!

The Arizona state line puts a smile on my face every single time I cross it. I know that there are memories to last a lifetime and friends with open arms just a few hours away. Not to mention the scenery and some of the best damn skate parks out...

Crossing this line at dawn feels even better than that.

Weather Alert



It is such a terrifying feeling to realize that you are in a potentially fatal weather situation and you have no shelter from the storm.

Amy took notice of some other vehicles pulled over beneath freeway overpasses and suggested that we look a little further into the current weather situations. Moments later this was pulled up on my phone and the hail began, I was sitting shotgun, Mark was driving and we both thought that our windshield was going to give way. There was a machine gun fire of hail pelting us and not a freeway overpass in sight. Finally we found an overpass but there was no exit, Mark made the right move and we shot down the on ramp. There were about 8 other vehicles taking cover as well, weirdly enough there was not one person talking to one another. Everyone just sat in there own little pods and waited. I kept running around trying to look at the clouds to see if there were any indications of tornados, I didn't see anything and was constantly scared back the cover of the bridge by flashing bolts of lightning and screams of thunder. One by one everyone and their little pods moseyed back onto the freeway, not a nod or a smile from one of them. Weird. Safe travels are wished for, adios amigos.

End of days and saying goodbyes...

Rob left us, this trip has been amazing. Rob, super glad to have got to share these times with ya!! I'm still fully torqued...
