May Road Trip
5/26 & 5/27/2024 • Day 11 & 12 • Arleta, CA to Claremore, OK
Rushing home - Day 11 - Arleta, CA to Gallup, NM
Right after we finished our return trip from Utah, I received a text from my wife about a tree that fell and knocked in a door on our house, I checked the Claremore, OK weather only to find they were in the middle of a tornado. The tornado did significant damage to our community and left us personnally without electricity for 10 days. So I cut my road trip short and drove home in two very long days. I stopped several times to take some photos or for a meal just so I could keep going. 16 hours on the first day; 13 hours on the second.

Places I stopped on the first day...
• Ludlow, CA along historic Highway 66 east of Barstow, CA
• A section of railroad just east of Amboy, CA also on 66
• A gas station at Goffs, CA (also on 66) just to laugh at the gas prices
• The Colorado River crossing between Laughlin, NV and Bullhead City, AZ
• A couple of videos driving through Flagstaff, AZ
• Sunset just east of Flagstaff, AZ
• Stars near Joseph City, AZ just south of I-40
