Statistics

I've arrived back in the proper time zone after a two-week whirlwind. Here are some numbers, including evidence shown on the Nuvi. Note that the drive was not continuous. I spent the majority of the time in Utah and then had detours through Kansas City, Indianapolis, and Louisville.

The Max Speed on the Nuvi has been reset to protect the innocent driver who obeyed all posted speed limits the entire time. This is an amazing, beautiful country.

Oklahoma!

I set about driving from point A to point B on Saturday. What did you see this weekend?

Note that this isn't 490 miles to the destination, it's just to the next turn.



Texas rest stops are big. Of course, they are! What else would they be?



The last 200 miles to Phoenix were on local highways and small roads. This is entering the desert.



And just after I emerged from the forest. I somehow escaped the full brunt of the storm visible in the back.



Keep in mind this is one day, one thousand miles.
