Time to get your gear sorted. Although there is never a bad time to travel across America spring will be here soon which is actually the ideal time to travel the Western half of the route if you would like to avoid extreme heat. However the eastern half is usually fairly cool into May. But keep in mind Southern California enjoys nominal weather all year round. Historic 66 has undergone several improvements over the past few years and a few iconic landmarks have changed hands. I for one look forward to revisiting rediscovering the Mother Road again this summer. I'll see you on the American Highway
