    Departure

    May 9, 2022 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 43 °F

    It took us most of the day Sunday (Mother’s Day) to pack but it was worth it so we could leave bright and early this morning. We hit the road at about 7:30am. Stopped for breakfast in Lost Hills and topped off the gas tank. Gas isn’t cheap we’re about $425 into fuel but we’ve still got a half tank so it should get us to Zion. Just as Cory was starting to get comfortable with driving the RV we hit the Mojave desert and the Mojave wind. It was pretty white knuckle all through the desert and when he wasn’t fighting the wind he was fighting the drafts of the semi trucks either passing or us passing them. We stopped just past Barstow to eat lunch and let the dogs pee. Then back on the road and headed to Las Vegas.
