Picto Diary - 21 April 2016 - On the Duc... On the Road...Riding West from Ojai

Above: Studio musician pick-up band grooves (blues and jazz) at The Vine. Ojai, CA. 20 April 2016.

Mr. Z3 and Mwah (sic) stopped by after dinner at Osteria Monte Grappa, Ojai, CA, and were wowed by the energy of this group.

An unusual combination. Piano, half drum kit, solo guitar, and two tenor saxes. The players were all professional... the lead sax player is with Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.

On the road... On the Duc..

95 degrees in Baker.

Late model, white, Cayenne blisters by going 20 over on the right just north of Barstow. I 15 northbound. 25 miles later, he's biding his time at roadside as a CHP trooper writes him up. Shadenfreude?

On the road... on the Duc.

Double express lanes seemed to help move northbound, I 15 traffic through Las Vegas more efficiently than before.

Addendum:
