Day 1 - Thursday, 4/8/10 Fresno to Needles


After dropping Adrain and Tucker off to our daughter, Summer, at our store, we were finally on our way. Well not exactly, I had forgotten the laptop at home, so Kevin headed back to our house so we could get it. Then a quick stop at Snow-White's Drive In for some corndogs for Kevin, a salad for me, and Rootbeer freezes for both of us; then we hit the road at 12:03 pm.

We had no exact plan for where to spend the night, thought possibly Kingman. Just before Needles we saw signs and realized we were actually traveling the historic Route 66. Had we known and had a map for this we could have been on it from Barstow as it follows pretty close to the Interstate 40 that we were on. We decided to spend the night in Needles as it was about 5:45 pm. We checked into the Colorado River Best Western, then went to the restaurant next door call Juicy's for dinner.
