sorry i have not posted in a while. i could not get a good connection on the road. so far we have gone about 2300 miles from the start of our trip. the trooper has been running well other than the oil pressure has been going down every day. i changed the oil pump and oil this morning so it should be good. right now we are in LA. we have seen the grand canyon, the painted desert, the petrified forest, and the mojave desert. here are some pictures of the trip so far.
