The drive today started on US 93 taking us through Wickenburg, Nothing (yes a town named Nothing), Wikieup and Kingman. Twelve crosses along the right side of the road marking fatalities. No idea what the left side held. Scenery consisted of mountains, Saguaro Cactus and Joshua Trees. The road between Wickenburg and Interstate 40 is designated to become 11 Corridor. Not sure what that means, but whatever it means it has a long way to go. Continuing on 93 to Las Vegas added a single cross on the right. Las Vegas was a lunch stop at Firehouse Subs. These subs are outstanding and have become our goto sub.
Traffic wasn’t too bad through town, with a little construction on the North side. US 95 took us the rest of the way to our overnight in Tonopah, Nevada. I know, Barb isn’t too happy about spending our anniversary in a Best Western in Tonopah. We pretty much decided never to take this route North in the future and the dinner cemented the deal.
Tomorrow we head out for an overnight in Hines, Oregon. I’m afraid the drive will be more of the same.
497.3 miles and 29.7 MPG today.
