Graduation and Southwest USA Road trip

[aging one]

We took off Mid June to see my daughter Vanessa graduate. Then took off on an epic road trip of just over 6,500 kilometers. San Francisco to Santa Monica, to Las Vegas. Then to Winslow Arizona to "stand of the corner". From there to Santa Fe New Mexico to visit one of my oldest friends. Up to Taos New Mexico, then into Southern Colorado.

Starting with some pictures of young Ness and then graduation pictures.







The money shot.


We then took off for Santa Monica, Malibu and Venice Beach.

End of the line for route 66. Forest Gump and I both stopped here.

Onward to Vegas.

Why you come to Vegas, Tahoe, Reno, and a few Indian casinos according to the better half.

Time to head to Winslow Az.

Heard "Standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona such a fine sight to see, a girl my lord in a flat bed Ford slowing down to take a look at me". Had to go!!!

From there on to Santa Fe. To be continued later. Can only upload 20 posts at a time.
