Arizona did not take the shut down seriously.
I would be more concerned about riot news. Do not stay in Tucson or Phoenix. Are you taking I-10 or I-40?
I am thrilled to hear Arizona won’t be a problem.
I havne’t decided taking I-10 vs I-40. My first decision is go or don’t go. With all the help in this thread saying that I can burn through the southwest without issues, and with the states I want to research mostly being open, I am already leaning heavily toward going. The help I have gotten on this thread is doing wonders toward aleviating my anxiety at cross country travel at this time. So, “whew!”
As soon as I commit to this, then I will plan my trip. I have been cross country on both routes and I would probably be inclined to take I-10.
Thanks especially for the advice to avoid Phoenix and Tucson. Much appreciated.
