Epic Road Trip 2016, California !

After Arcosanti we made our way north to I-40, and drove thru the desolate desert to Barstow.

We didn't arrive in Barstow until after dark, and it was cold again. After some dinner we holed up in the hotel and went to bed early, even though it was New Years Eve.

We checked the weather report in the morning, and it had snowed in the upper altitudes.  We decided to drive thru the Tehachapi pass, even though it had snowed there overnight. Once we got past Mojave and into the mountains, there was snow on the sides of the road, but none on the roadbed. 

... and, 6400 miles and 30 days later, we were home.

It was an Epic Trip.
