A Very Gradual Climb

We left California last week and eventually made our way through Las Vegas, Arizona and Utah. Here are a few pictures from the trip from the desert floor to the high desert, climbing a little over 750 feet in elevation.

Pictures are just breathtaking! In a way they bring out more beauty of the area than I remember when we drove West & back. Maybe, that was because my wife kept yelling at me to keep my eyes on the dang road!

GIL: The road winds a lot through here. And if you're heavy, the elevation makes for slow going. Since Ed was driving this time, I was able to snap a few pictures. It's the best I could do from a moving vehicle! :)

ELH here is a blog I started a long time ago, but I am not the Salena of the blogosphere so I don't update it regularly. I am intending to start uploading pics of past loads we have hauled with different techniques I use to secure the loads.

Breathtaking and an opportunity for us couch potatoes to 'see' the
beautiful world out there. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
