Early April cross country jaunt

[G-Rex]

Did 700 miles from San Diego to Gallup, New Mexico today. The last 180 miles here from Flagstaff were in sub 40 temps. I sure was glad to have my heated gear! I had no idea it was that cold until I checked when I got here.

Early start tomorrow for another 650 miles, and I should be home in time for dinner.

Welcome to the Colorado Plateau: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Co...teaus_map.png. Average elevation is about 6,000 feet, but Flagstaff is 7,000.

Another great trip would be to visit every National Park and Monument on the Colorado Plateau. Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capital Reef, Grand Canyon.....Zion. that should be on everyone's bucket list.

I've been to a few of those, but not all. That would be cool. It was 27 degrees this morning when I left Gallup. Way glad for heated gear!

I'm home now. 6000 or so miles on the week. Not too shabby. Back to work tomorrow. *boo*

Hell there are a lot of national parks in the west are on my bucket list, removed a bunch on my trip last year, but want to go back to some of them. Acadia is the last one on my list on the east coast and did the ones in Alaska I wanted to do when I lived up there.
