New route

After a lot of thought and conversations, I have decided to change my route. I follow a guy on youtube that tours the country in his rv. About a week ago he started his most recent journey taking Route 66 just as I was planning. Not even out of California yet he has already come across several road closures causing him to backtrack to the interstate to get around the closures. This coupled with the extreme temperatures in June and July when I would be going through, I am changing my route to the TransAm route (see image). This is a much longer route but will be cooler and should have less issues regarding road closures. Another benefit of this route is that it goes through my brother's home state of Colorado where perhaps his kids and my other brother can join me for that portion of the ride :)
