I can answer all questions regarding best routes of travel. Although I cannot predict traffic conditions, I can provide the most scenic and dynamic route for the traveller on a budget and or schedule. I also know the most direct and yet scenic routes.
I have had the opportunity to travel quite extensively throughout the Southwest and the Pacific Northwest, both as a resident and traveler. My search for adventure and new experiences has given me the thirst for the "road less travelled". Because I am not independently wealthy, the road I travel is as an admirer of the journey. As long as I can find a place to sleep for next to nothing, pack some food, and afford the gas I am down the road. If given a description of the prospective travelers needs I can easily provide them with detailed route options independent of their finances and suited to their needs. Most of my travels have been by automobile. I recently purchased a motorcycle and I am taking ten day trip from Joshua Tree to Auburn California and I am taking back roads and state highways the entire way. I will take a day trip around Lake Tahoe, where I lived for two years, and cruise the old highways of the Gold Mining era. I will cut across towards the Pacific and slowly wind my way down the coast taking in every minute smell and experience temperature changes subtly created by the shadow of leaves
Some friends and I from the area have started a local music and art "zine" and have experienced some very positive community feedback.
I am currently a full-time, thirty-seven year old student and I am preparing to begin a career in primary education. I have chosen this field not only because I feel it will be rewarding but also for the travel time it will allow me. I anticipate frequent world travel in my near future.

Donna, I apologize for the late reply, I have been down with pneumonia for over two weeks now. I think 8 days should be plenty of time to see all that you would like to see. My suggestion would be to
Valerie, It sounds like you have discovered a great way to go. The drive up 395 north of Death Valley is a great trip and going through south Lake Tahoe across Hwy 50 is also a nice drive. The roads
Lori, sorry for the late reply I just got back from Rhode Island and didn't check my e-mail for awhile. So you are heading to the Los Angeles area and are concerned about traffic. Let me think... the best
Frances, Okay so you have a fifteen foot tent trailer who's roof is lower than the one on your 18 foot suv right? If this is the case and you can see clearly all around your vehicle I would not worry
Frances, Getting to Yosemite Valley along 120 isn't really that bad until you get down by groveland, then it becomes ridiculous. I just did it on a motorcycle and can not imagine doing it in anything
