So here is the review of my trip.
6 days
3 cars for the whole drive (+1 for the drive down)
4 states (OR, CA, NV, AZ)
49hrs and 20min of seat time.
1 awesome 2705 mile road trip!
11 fill ups for a total of 93.67 gallons of fuel.
That is 28.8mpg for the entire trip.


Look who we ran into in Grants Pass…


After lunch – we are repacking the cars.


Amy showing us all how large the trees on the “ave. of the giants” are.


The cars parked




Aaron and Doug discussing the roads ahead.


Brian grinning while putting Stella through the paces.

Look – there is the Pacific!




Brian tossed me back into my seat so hard it knocked the wind out of me.




Look there is the Pacific again.

After HC we took off east for a late night arrival in Vegas! The next morning we ran out to Hoover (Boulder) Dam to drive over the road which will soon close to traffic as the by pass bridge is nearly complete.





Hoover Dam – we did not see Starscream, but we were looking for him.


Brian keeping a watchful eye out for the Decepticons.




The bridge


That afternoon we ran down to the strip.

The Strat


Doug spotted this custom car.


Aaron and Shonda at the Flamingo.



Insert your own funny comment here – I am only providing the picture.


The Strip at night – as Aaron pointed out – it looks much cleaner after dark.

As we walked near Cesar’s Palace (no Cesar did not sleep there) we ran into the Rascal club. They told us they were not a club but a group and that they were on their way to the “Rascal Round Up” 

At Tiffany’s – I was able to afford to look at this display.


Aaron and Shonda went inside to look – no purchases.


Glass ceiling at the Bellagio.

Volcano show at the Mirage with TI in the background.



Poor Stella – she is bug coated – she will get a bath and air out so she will be ready for Saturday!
