Day T minus 1a (The Final Route for Leg 1: NM, AZ, CA)

Well, I leave tomorrow and thought I would provide the final planned routes for Leg 1 of this trip (NM, AZ, CA). I'll first head to the Grand Canyon, and then down to Joshua Tree Park. After that, I'll either head up through the interior of CA or along the coast (will depend on weather, my mood, etc...). Below are a few Google Maps of my route. If you click on the "view larger map" link just below each map, you'll be taken to the full Google Map of the route. If you know how to use "street view," (by dragging that little orange guy onto a road), you'll see "through my eyes," as it were.
