For the record, these Alabama Hills are actually in California. But you will be crossing some beautiful country. Also, side note, I've been visiting Alabama, the state, several times this summer. I'm an architect and I've got a project being built there. My last visit was just last week. Alabama is very green, just like Oregon (well most of Oregon) but the heat and humidity is something else. Also, watch out for ticks!

Yeah I will be crossing though some of Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming on my route. I have been through California before on other trips and it's nice.

Oh man, the bugs, snakes, and swamp ass are the main things I am not looking forward to, lol. I am from Birmingham originally and know full well what I have coming, lol.

If you make it through Alabama anytime after October 9, let me know and we'll meet up!
