Chasing Windmills
today was day one of our 2 day drive to ABQ. California is such a bigass state- after 9 hours in the car, we are still in CA, in a little town called Needles on the border of Arizona. all this time in the car is a great time to ponder deep questions, such as: "is cottage cheese really cheese?"

besides windmill land (which we passed through during a brief rain shower), a lot of our trip looked like this:
and then we got a rainbow on rt. 40:
more gorgeous clouds:
and sand dunes:
we ate dinner at a diner in Needles that featured this sign in the entrance:
it also featured dinner entertainment:
my favorite book in the gift shop was called "If Life Were Fair, Horses Would Get to Ride Half the Time". truer words were never said.

You got to visit Spike's home town of Needles, CA: http://peanuts.wikia.com/wiki/Spike! (Well sorta, he lives in the desert.) Good luck with the move. :)
yes! i knew needles sounded familiar. but no one else knows what i'm talking about when i bring up spike, so then i just stopped mentioning him. good to know it wasn't just all in my head.
