David, have not picked exact route but, foothill freeway is high on the
list. But subject to change hourly, if not daily. We have not decided
whether to invade Santa Monica with all the coaches, or all pile into one
coach. We will discuss this as a group in the near future, and I will post
it here in advance. Now in Holbrook, AZ at Joe and Aggie's Cafe, for lunch.
Saw the painted desert and petrified forest this morning. Flagstaff tonight.
