CA to CO

The first 1200 miles of my voyage east are complete. After leaving Claremont on Monday the 16th, my friend Charles and I (mother, please note the proper usage of the first-person singular subject here) headed west to visit Charles's friend in Malibu, effectively making my starting point as far west as possible. From Malibu we drove to Las Vegas on the 17th (up $200 in blackjack), Williams, AZ on the 18th (right by the Grand Canyon), Page, AZ on the 19th, Vail, CO on the 20th, and finally Boulder, CO on the 21st.

Joslyn picked me up on Sunday the 22nd and I'll be in Colorado Springs until June 7, when Jeff will be picking me up to begin the second leg of my drive.

Went to game 2 of the Lakers/Mavs series at Staples Center with Kevin's family

Yup


Horseshoe Bend near Page, AZ. Just as cool as the Grand Canyon in my opinion

We did a little pro-bono work on Boulder's Pearl Street Mall
