DAY 3 Barstow, CA - Needles, CA

We stopped several times for the photographers to set up their drone shots.We stopped along a deserted Route 66 road for a picnic. As soon as we arrive, we jump out and start setting up. Glenn digs through the first row of seats and pulls out the blue dufflebag that houses the sheets, some towels, and the Bolivian blanket. Glenn rugs up the blanket for shade.

We pull out sandwiches supply. And our makeshift table was used as folks make their ham, turkey, and cheese sandwiches. Two of the bicyclist made their own sandwhiches. They were sitting in the van to keep cool.

My dad is enjoying following us moment by moment on the Find My Friends app. And this is a quote we got from him as we were parked in the middle of the desert having our picnic lunch.

Mother and I drove over that same road in 1952 in a car with our airconditioning with one bottle of water - it was hot hot hot. Never forget - we were right there where you are right now!!! but we made it, I hope you do!!!Læs mere
