Go ahead - stay home. Sit on your couch and watch the drivel on your television. Limp along in the slow lane of your life. Or grab your photo gear and your sense of adventure, bring along a road map, and travel to a remote stretch of deserted highway. Prepare to lose yourself in a land of weathered cultural icons left behind by those who, once upon a time, carried on a love affair with desert.


These photographs are from one of my Route 66 photography workshops. Contact me if you would like to join me on my next photo expedition along the old road.

Bike, Toms Welding

"Stuff" is everywhere at Tom's Welding, in Barstow, located along Old Highway 58, and a few minutes from historic Route 66.

The Welder

Daggett Cemetery

The little community of Daggett lies just east of Barstow, in the Mojave desert of California. Many of the graves in the Pioneer Cemetery - alongside historic Route 66 - are unmarked, but those who rest there have not been forgotten.
