Used to know that area fairly well. One of them days the only reason to get out of the river is to refill the floating ice chest with beer

Last time I took the "scenic" route to Phx I did Barstow and Needles. Good parts of both look like ghost towns compared to my times spent there in my teens and 20s.

We get about 6 weeks of motorcycle/convertible/painting weather around March/April/May and then another 6 weeks around September/October/November.
December, January and February can be in the 30's, and June, July and August can be over 100 with 99% humidity and rain every single day.
Our recently acquired indoor/outdoor thermometer tracks high and low and shows 32 and 109.
We got it in Feb IIRC.
Some years we even get high to mid 20's.
Brrrrrr.
...but I wouldn't go back to Ohio minus 15 to 30's for almost 5 months of the year.

It finally cooled down a little here 83 and thunder storming.
I bet within an hr it will be 90+ again and so humid you will not want to be outside.

You ain't kidding. They are proud of that Gas. I think I paid $2.80 at Sam's the other day.
Hey guy, you ran out of thermometer!!!
SE Tx. Winter of 2-3 months is our good times, the rest of the year it is HOT but NOT like there. And gas is cheaper too!!
But the state ran out of power last winter for 3 days last winter and 35 people froze to death. But Fed. politician said, that was only .00006
of the states population!!???

Gas prices knockin' on the 5$ door at numerous places here near the beach too. "Needless" I like that
.My dad made a lot of that concrete in I 40 there in Needless. I think I did some too, even though I was only 15 or 16 at the time. It was a learning opportunity and I took it, what can I say. I even helped strip the false work/forms and columns from under one of the bridges. "If you see a yellow private plane flying low over the job. Get out of sight quickly. That's the boss." says dad

I was hiking once out in afton canyon and wouldn't you know it, two little yellow cubs flying INSIDE the tiny little canyon. (tail numbers blocked out.) I was informed later that their best guess was drug planes. interesting....Gas prices knockin' on the 5$ door at numerous places here near the beach too. "Needless" I like that
