We got a little bit of a late start after getting our last CA gas for a while and a truck stop mocha. We were on the road by 10:00 am however, East on I-10, mostly just us and the trucks again. There is a long 12- mile uphill grade out of the Coachella Valley then a series of up-an-down grades into the desert after crossing into Arizona at Blythe on the Colorado River. And, the price of gas dropped a $1.00 a gallon across the border. It was still high at $3.60 a gallon. Hard to believe we feel good about gas at that price.
We had about a :30-minute delay enroute due to a lane closer for a big rig accident cleanup. Weather was pretty good, a little wind at the higher elevations but mostly clear and easy driving. Lunch at a rest stop, between the trucks.
We are just here for two nights however and no big plans other than relax and watch the Super Bowl on Sunday.
