7:10 am – casa grande, az

June 25th, 2008 by kevincasper

i’m up earlier than i feel like being up. this room was freezing last night. ironic since it was still over 100 when i pulled in at 9 o’clock last night. maybe i’ll get a jump on the heat today. when you’re driving across country on the southern path during a heatwave in a 1993 ford escort packed to the gills, morning and night travel make the most sense. i should probably stop at hotels and sleep through the middle of the day and drive on the edges. housekeeping schedules would fuck me.

there’s a drive-thru starbucks next door to this piece of shit motel. i need something big and iced. i’ll drive as far as i can through the burning desert today. not many sights along the way. i still miss topanga something fierce. lefty is growling at the sounds this place makes. i don’t blame him.

here’s some shots from the trip from casa grande to pecos, tx.
