First stop: Coffee with "new" Cousin AJ

Click to enlarge. Itinerary: Start at Redesdale in LA; B is Las Vegas for coffee with AJ; C is first night in Green River , Utah, if we can make it. Then over the mountains (no snow in forecast) to Lexington, Nebraska; Last stop, Shakopee. 1866 miles, average 600 plus each day.
We're heading home as early as we can Friday morning. We'll be driving east against the morning rush here in LA, so it shouldn't be too bad, although you just never know, there's not much tolerance for error on these freeways.
Our first stop will be in Las Vegas where we will meet AJ Jackson for the very first time. Our great great granddaddys were Jackson brothers from Scotland, so that makes us cousins, and we're to going celebrate that with a cup of coffee at the Starbucks off I-15. (The scotch will wait until we get home)
We'll share a photo if they've got wifi there and AJ is willing.
