I drove from Death Valley to Barstow today. With temperatures well over 100 forecast for the next few days, I’m not going to be able to make the distances I’d planned on each day.

Monday I’m going to drive through Amboy and try to get some pictures of the Atom at that famous sign.

After that, I may change course and head toward home via a more northerly route to try to get out of the heat. Rain is also forecast for parts of Arizona and New Mexico, so I may have to sit that out, too. I won’t need to make a final decision on changing my route until I get to Albuquerque, so stay tuned.
