Tomorrow is the day we hit the road for our long awaited "get out of Needles before it gets hot trip". My back is hurting somewhat but I'm not going to let that stop us from leaving. Can hardly wait to get to Orangevale, CA and see that grandson of ours who is now 9 months old.

Keep checking my blog as I'll do my best to provide scenic pictures and info along the way.

It is no secret that the More family on Chris' side and then me for 36 years enjoy hunting for rocks. It appears that Brandon has inherited this interest; however, he prefers to taste the rock first before deciding if it is a "keeper"! Obviously this one didn't pass the taste test.
