From Tonopah

When I took this picture I thought it was unique--but I thought there was a pretty good chance that someone else had taken a picture of it and posted it online, so I checked. Ha! Not only is this not unique, there are oodles of them out there! The first one I clicked on turned out to be on someone else's blog, taken in 2012, as she was driving through Tucson on 4th Avenue! Oh, well. It was new to me. I would like to see inside.

Construction on I-15 going into San Bernandino took us 60 minutes to go 30 miles. I almost preferred going up the hill this way--slowly-it forced everyone to slow down! 

 We pulled into Chiraco Summit for lunch and while I was preparing Cary's sandwich, he found this car museum (to be) and took pictures. So it is his turn to write about what he saw.

 This old gas station, built in 1955, had a sign in front calling it the classic car museum. You know me, I had to check it out. The office was filled with signs, pictures, mags, and manuals. The bay had a '40's Cadillac, and period correct tools. Behind this they had put up a gigantic steel bulding that will become the new museum. A young man named Victor showed me around and answered all my questions. He grew up here, went to high school 27 miles away in Indio, and lives in the trailer park behind the museum.

We made it to Tonapah, Arizona and the Saddle Mountain RV Park. Home in Tucson tomorrow.
