    On a salt belt on Potash Rd. Look at all the salt Where they get the salt from. I still don't fully know everything about how they do this. May try to find out more info about this tomorrow. Nissan Stock GPS vs my 4 years old garmin. Per my personal conclusion; No match. My garmin beats Nissan...

    Shafer Trail. I was going to do the trail alone until I met up with a bunch of people in different groups about to do the trail. This is where everybody was airing down. Well, except for me. I did not air down. So, keeping my fingers crossed as I head down the switchbacks. Swithbacks ahead of...

    I visited Red Rock Canyon this afternoon. It has a 13 miles scenic drive and about 11 places for people to stop and take pictures or hike. The scenic drive takes about 45 minutes to complete or more if you take your time. But with the heat at 115, I could not hike anywhere, but get out of the...

    It has been fun so far. Yesterday I was so tired, I did not do much. Today I figured Freemont Experience would be a lot better than the strip. So, I spent the whole time there. So much fun. I don't drink alcohol, so I had a hard time finding something to drink. I think I may make some time to...

    Las Vegas... People were coming and lining up to take pictures with this sign in the hundreds. A lot of people getting on the scale to see if they get over 350 so they can eat for free. Unfortunately, everybody I saw who got on the scale could not eat for free. I think the people who could...

    I left Laughlin, NV for Las Vegas today. And I had to make sure to stop and spend some time at the Hoover Dam. I most say this place was packed full. I have never seen so many tourists before in one place. It was fascinating as usual. This place is an engineering masterpiece. Mark this on your...

    You are very correct. In fact, I just checked into my room. Relaxing a bit now before hitting the streets, lol. Just wanted to update my thread on my visit to Hoover Dam about 3 hours ago.

    Kingman, AZ. Not much to report. Got my route 66 passport stamped and got back into the car on my way to Oatman AZ on the very scenic route. I got to Sitgreaves Pass and put my Gopro on for some great twists and curves on the last 6 miles to Oatman, AZ. Oatman, AZ Inside the hotel Buy the...

    Peach Springs AZ. The only place you can drive into the bottom of the Grand Canyon. I paid the park fees of $25 plus tax. AZ residents pay I think $15 plus tax. Took my pass and headed on the 19 miles dirt road, rocky and bumpy ride. It takes about an hour or more to get there. And another hour...

    Route 66 pictures. Stretch between Flagstaff, AZ to Oatman AZ. Williams, AZ. Not much here. I got here at 7am and the town was dead quite. I was the only vehicle driving. Stopped at a store and bought a few things and by then, the roads were getting alive. Then to Ashfork. Nothing here to...
