American Road Trip 2008

After all the Las Vegas entertainment we drove to Wickenburg, AZ where we stayed in this very strange motel. The person at the front desk looked like she was the president of the Psycho fanclub, and I reckoned that her hairdo was an award winning design at the 1954 Wickenburg Fair..... Luckily we su...

Here are a few photos of last Wednesday in Las Vegas and at the Hoover Dam.
At this classic car dealer on Tropicana Blvd. you can rent every car in their lot if their selling prices are a wee bit too steep for your wallet:

American Road Trip 2008

Last Tuesday (December 9th) we left our motel in the greater San Diego area to travel up the West coast to Dana Point, to catch a ferry to Catalina Island. Since we both are not really the average tourist types, we decided that just a quick view at the island from the Californian coast was more than...

After our TA Performance visit, we went to another part of Phoenix, to visit Speedway Automotive. The guy in the office told us that there wasn't a lot of all the Buick stuff left, they decided to quit the Buick parts business and only concentrate on the Reatta. Click thumbnails

At a truckstop we met this truckdriver from the Netherlands, who is now living in Texas since 1981. Great guy named Paul, after all those y...
