Roadtrip 2023 Fall : Richland - Bend - Reno - Mammoth Lakes - Henderson - Donkey Heaven - Sedona - Joshua Tree - Paso Robles - St Helena - Brookings - Seaside


Day 55 - Joshua Tree to Paso Robles

The very long straight road to Barstow.

What there is to see near Barstow, California.

Ugh - unfortunately we do have to return to 58 - truck racing is really silly along this stretch.

An access point to the World-Famous Pacific Crest Trail. Could have been a Renewed Topographic, but there is no redeeming topographic here.

Smog in the valley - not so appealing when you think about all our food that comes off these lands.

Harvest season is complete for these vines.

Lamont fashion week.

Inflatables are all the rage this Christmas.

Truck races through the desert towards Spearhead Coffee.

This used to be the Naval Petroleum Reserve #2. Apparently, they sold it in 2015, as the US Navy no longer needs petroleum. It is now entirely powered by green renewables. That is how Plant-Based Radar works for you.

All of a sudden the wind has kicked up - the flag at Blackwell's Corner is standing straight out!

Racing sunset into Robles past the orchards.

Clouds provide some landscape drama - but we never saw a drop.

Christmas shopping destination on downtown Paso.

Lighting up the sky from our warm perch inside Spearhead coffee.

The view from Spearhead Coffee. They are open until 6pm.
