On Our Way

Well friends,
We are finally on our way to Central America. I am currently in Chandler, AZ staying at my uncle's house before departing in the morning for the border at Douglas. We started the trip off right with a nice little 700-mile jaunt yesterday from Boise to just south of Las Vegas. It rained, it snowed, it sleeted, there were dirty little animals in the road, and our final decent into the Las Vegas area was complimented by a ferocious dust storm. We rode nearly 5-hours through sub-30 degree weather @ 80MPH... All that aside, I am very happy to be out of what was sure to be the worst weather/longest day of the trip. This morning we fought traffic over Hoover Dam, and the greater Phoenix bubble... It was windy and rainy again, but not even close to as bad as yesterday. Tomorrow things transition to more of a subdued rural setting... Highway 10 south... I am very excited for the pace to slow and the mileage to shrink. Pics up soon...
