I love a good desert drive and this is one of my favorites. Kelbaker Road stretches from the town of Baker -- well known to people on Interstate 15 as pretty much the only gas and restroom stop between Barstow and the Nevada state line -- straight south to intercept Route 66 a few miles to the east of the small town of Amboy.
Named for the towns of Baker and Kelso (a train stop pictured in the distance) it is a wonderful drive of straightaways, curves and an ever-changing terrain. Cinder cones, lava flows, rock formations, sand dunes and granite peaks can be found in this stretch of the Mojave.
I think it's time for a road trip...
I remember the viedo you did of Cris' wonderful song "Calling You" from her CD...could you download that again.
