California!

I just arrived in Blythe, CA a few minutes ago.
This morning I had a nice visit with my cousin Becky in Gilbert. In the afternoon I had a nice visit with her mother, my Aunt Ella, who is 94, in Winkleman, AZ.
It was a long day of driving -first on dusty desert roads through the open pit mining area and mountains, later on I-10 which had heavy traffic from south of Tempe and west of Phoenix. It was not fun driving west toward the bright setting sun. I usually do not travel alone at night. This was one time I made an exception.
