New Mexico!
Still in transit, but got into New Mexico just about 20 minutes ago. Another two hours or so to go.
Couple random thoughts:
- Most consistently-bad roads so far: California
- Smoothest roads: Arizona
- Most barren-looking: New Mexico–but admittedly, my opinion could be skewed by the fact that it’s still technically winter.
- Most abundant: Oregon
A few words on Arizona traffic in the winter…
It’s not the snowbirds.
It isn’t.
I know Arizona “natives” would very much like to think the cause of traffic problems in the major cities is the cause of out-of-staters and snowbirds.
But after dealing with Phoenix (area) traffic, it seems to me that the only drivers doing consistently dangerous things – 20+ over, U-turns from outside lanes (on interstates, no less), abrupt lane changes, abrupt stops for no discernible reason, no speed control, wandering across center lines, tailgating when there are several over lanes with which to pass – every one of them had Arizona plates.
Arizona Sunrise
Our last Arizona sunrise. East to Las Cruces! The Littles spent the last two weeks being drug around Leaf Verde RV park in Buckeye AZ. Review to come.
4D Tic Tac Toe Lesson
I love it! An impromptu lunch lesson in 4 dimensions because the kids asked how you play tic tac toe in 3D. The Littles are totally in to it!
