the bus is running strong, holed up in roach hotel in Barstow, waiting out the heat… excessive heat warnings everywhere… back on the road tonight toward Reno

really needed that nap! it is still scorching hot in Barstow, hanging out at a cheap hotel… literally roaches everywhere, most of them dead, probably from the nuclear heat…

btw Betty the Bus flipped her goose this afternoon. They don’t make many vehicles like this one. A cargo van, a camper, a cultural icon…. Half-million miles, about 40 years old, still going strong, and still getting 25 miles to the gallon…
