The Last Days of a Dream Road Trip - Pictures

These aren't in any particular order. I had nightmares trying to organize them before, so I'm not even going to try with these. I've added pics from the last couple of days as well as pictures from Jesse's phone. So here goes...
The Arch in St. Louis

Cruising down the interstate

My hair doesn't do so great in the wind... haha

Keith hopped in there for a pic not because he cared to have a pic there, but because everyone else was doing it.

One of my new cars

Another one of my new cars. Just visiting San Francisco apparently makes you suddenly wealthy.

A couple of cars drove by bouncing like crazy. It was pretty funny. I wasn't able to catch a great picture though.

Some dude laying face down not moving... we hollered at him... he was fine, just resting I guess.

The view from The Franciscan Crab

Highway 1 played a pretty huge role in our trip












There's a lighthouse in the background here. Very cool.


Elephant seals right off of Highway 1




A Ford GT just parked on the side of the road in Beverly Hills. You know, just going over to a buddy's house.

Keith

Me

Jess

Venice Beach, Los Angeles



A permitted graffiti area on Venice Beach


Clearly, the Walk of Fame in Hollywood

This was a good enough view of the Hollywood sign for us. Cities are cool, but it's the nature that means something to us.

Leaving California


Arizona


Heading through Arizona. I feel like we could create our own postcards.

Arizona sunset

Broke over the Texas borderline super early in the morning

Finally coming home...


We saw this sign shortly after crossing the Tennessee line and  laughed a bit. Did we take a wrong turn at Albuquerque?

The total mileage for the trip. Not quite 6000 miles, but pretty dang close.

I think this was in Wyoming.



Keith (aka "Jeffrey") was proud of this one.




We had fun at this welcome sign...




Standing in front of the Grand Tetons

The one night we camped it got down to 30 degrees. Jeez.


I decided to peek under the sign. Not sure why.


Watching the sunrise in Yellowstone.

In front of Old Faithful





I'm not sure what was going on this particular time, but we had so many of these kinds of moments, I don't guess it matters.


Keith and I standing on a fallen Redwood

Jess standing inside (yes, inside) of a Redwood.

Driving the Camry THROUGH a Redwood.

Keith wanted to carve his initials in this tree. It's not a Redwood, just some random tree off of Highway 1.

We were actually up in the clouds.






Arizona - The sun was setting behind us right here.


Didn't get a good shot of this one. Oh well.


Close to a full moon, and it was shining bright as we sped on towards home.
