So we drove out to Arizona yesterday. I know, you’re probably thinking I’m losing my mind since my last post was about how Arizona can’t figure out how toproperly use roundabouts. I swear I have been back in California since then and we just drove out to Arizona, yet again, yesterday.
This drive is getting old, let me tell you. Six hour road trips on the same stretch of boring freeway every two weeks are getting a bit redundant. Sometimes we get off and go to a “new” gas station though…like the one we went to this time where I found an amazing metal peacock that rocked back and forth in the wind.
But this time it wasn’t my remarkable gas station find that made the trip more eventful than usual. SNOW! Can you believe it!? Between Southern California and Arizona there was snow, and lots of it! From Viejas Casino outside of El Cajon to the little town of Jacumba there was snow…all over the roads and as far as the eye could see.
Although I didn’t get a picture of my precious metal peacock, I DID get 65 pictures of this snow. Firstly, because it was pretty exciting to see that amount of snow in a generally snow-free area…secondly, because what else am I suppose to do while we drive 45 mph for an hour on a stretch that usually takes us about 20 minutes.

I suppose I owe a shout-out to global warming for making this post possible...?
