We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert...


Recommended Posts

So I've just booked a 10 day road trip with my mate and brother starting in Las Vegas in October. I love Las Vegas so will do 3 nights but then looking to escape for a road trip that will end up back there in a week or so. I'm wanting classic desert scenery, strong drinks in dusty bars, tumbleweed etc. Basically No Country for Old Men meets Breaking Bad. Ideally without the guns.


Anyone got any tips for planning a route? Or any idea whether I should head south to Mexico or east to Albuquerque?

Monument Valley in Arizona and two National parks in Utah - Arches and Zion - I remember as some of the highlights from doing a Seattle to LA road trip that went via Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon. We went to a lake in Utah which I think was lake Powell, that was pretty awesome as well.

I could have died at Owens River Gorge on my way to Vegas (not recommended)


How about Reno, where there's a golden DeLorean ?


See what 'retro rich' looks like and think "am I a schmuck"


It's an existential experience

    • There seems to be a change in the reception staff - did not recognise a couple of them when I last visited.  Not sure whether one of the long term staff has retired as not seen her for a while.  Used on line facility as my podiatrist recommended antibiotics for a toe infection and also took photo of my toe which I attached yo my request. Got a message back within a day to say medication ordered from chemist.

    • Oh give it a break.  We have an MP who makes racist comments, yet our media (and what seems like this Forum) that generally hate Labour (and loved Johnson) are just out looking for the dirt. It's a move on, nothing to see here.  Particularly if she used a letting agency.
