The Mojave is familiar name of a desert in the US, but I have never been there and now I search some info.  I know that it is hot!  I daily remind myself that I would be hot anywhere. In the woodlands of Michigan it is easy to find shady routes.  I think that shade will be hard to find in the desert days.  In Michigan it is cooling at nights here, but the desert it looks like the nighttime low will be in the 80s.

The green area is the Mojave Desert. Most of the desert is in California, but I was surprised to see that it stretches into Nevada, Arizona and Utah.

I am glad to be the road stay in the flat land and not have the ups and downs.

The school in Goffs was renovated and it is now the home of the Mojave Desert Heritage and Cultural Association. It looks great, doesn't it?

Essex city well. Drivers would stop and stock up with water for the car engine. People would decide to travel across the desert at night or early in morning.

Now the street view. The road changes the route and it has a severe impact on these small towns.

Great idea to create an oasis. I am jumping in at whatever the cost!
