Yet one more reason why we love to drive instead of fly.

I’m old enough to remember “See The USA In Your Chevrolet!”

On our last road trip across the Rockies and The Fruited Plain, we drove our SUV, with brand new tires. The roads are incredible, except when you get near or in a democRAT run area.

I always love noticing absolutely no EVs in areas like the Great Salt Lake Basin. No EVs on the wonderful, long stretches of Hwy 80 and Wyoming. AND, we “charge up” our SUV in about 5 minutes.

It’s a sign of the times. Declines in Americana.

I'm old enough to remember coming away with Lucille in my merry Oldsmobile.

Our first trip out west was a few weeks ago and the logistics required flying.

I was amazed at how nice the roads were how clean the general area was.

We took a garden of the gods jeep tour and loved it.

The plan is to go back sometime and I want to drive it. There is so much of this country I’ve never seen.

My Tacoma will probably be replaced before that due to age and mileage. That isn’t expected for a few years. They run forever with maintenance.

If anyone wants and thinks they can stay awake long enough, here is the tour from my Go Pro 13.

We had a fantastic driver/guide who went by the name Tumbleweed.
