After planning, talking about it with everyone we know, postponing, waiting for the hurricane-free season, stalling a day for a chewed up engine belt, it is finally happening!
My husband and I are on a road trip through the Southern States, from Santa Cruz California to Savannah Georgia, from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. We wanted to do this for a long time but never found the... time.
It must have been the book 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil', or all the Hollywood movies, I feel the need to discover more of North America, the heart land. I have no baggage, I have no hang ups. I was born and raised in Italy. I am capable to accepting people of all personalities, as long as they are good people. I believe that in the world the majority of people are of a good nature, and those are the people I want to meet on this trip.
I love to make connections, whether we are soaking in the campground jacuzzi, or waiting in a museum line, or having a beer in a bar. I love a good story.

Day 12 - Phoenix to Tucson
Today it was all highways and nothing to report.
FYI, the Spanish name of the city, Tucsón, is derived from the O'odham Cuk Ṣon, meaning "(at the) base of the black [hill]", a reference to a basalt-covered hill now known as Sentinel Peak.
