California or Bust

Close… oh so close… there’s California stuff on the walls.

Cruising on

I haven’t been real prolific today because we’ve pushed on pretty far. You know how it is… the temperature outside is right above 100 degrees, the car is cool, there’s alot of desert around you, the road seems to go on forever… it’s just easier to point out the window. It’s like you can see [...]

Rock Cafe
