Hey ALL:
About to take a 2nd summer long adventure on the B. Taking off Fri Sept 2nd. Any insight, suggestions, comments would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the itinerary:
DAY 1: Leaving Hollywood about 5 p.m. ish, to La Quinta (Palm Springs area), spend the night here, and attack the desert first thing in the a.m. A year or 2 ago, left L.A. early a.m. but still caught 115 temps in Blythe to Phoenix. Dry heaves, massive headaches, dizziness (heat stroke). Messed up my body clock for about 2 days.
DAY 2: Leaving Palm Springs, arriving PHX to p/u petite curvaceous blonde flight attendant. Then we're heading to Sedona via Cottonwood.
DAY 3: Heading to Moab, Hwys 89, 163 (Monument Valley) 191
