@@boblister665 thank you for the kind words and for watching. Since I made this video I have driven cross country multiple times. I’ve become addicted to it hehe. Just returned from another one actually. I think I’m up around 20 times crossing the country by car and still Rt 50 remains my favorite way to drive it. Btw drive home up to Vegas and into St George across to Page, AZ. Then east through monument valley to Cortez, CO and across the Rockies in southern CO. You’ll thank me later :)

@@tjacobconley1 this vid ends where Rt 1 ends. Rt 101 continues to crescent city and we did do that after we hit the end of Rt 1. Actually on this trip we took 101 all the way up to Astoria and then went up to Seattle. The giant trees around in Northern CA were quite spectacular for sure.

Yep completed the whole thing!

Yeah it’s not for everybody. I couldn’t do it at normal speed because this drive took over 40 hours. Nobody’s gonna watch a video that long lol including myself.

@@baldrob3936Nah I don’t see it as unwatchable. As someone who wants to drive this route, the speed is perfect for seeing the general landscape.

Thanks so much for watching! The mile sign on the Sacramento side is in a tough place on the side of the interstate. Not a really safe place for photo and such but we managed to snap a pic of it.

It is truly a great road trip! Amazing to see how our landscape changes as you head west. I hope you are able to do the drive soon!

Wow that’s really cool! Beautiful area along Rt 50!

Route 50 actually joins I-255 in St Louis and swings south and then west over the Mississippi. Just after the river it breaks off in a commercial area. So we didn’t experience any urban travel there.

I made reservations on this one because I wanted to keep myself on schedule lol. After this drive we picked up my wife and daughter at LAX and we drove the coast up to Seattle. I took Route 2 back east before dipping down through MI to PA. I documented the drive home also but haven’t completed the edit on that one.

@@baldrob3936 Thank you, I enjoyed the video. Our Daughter lives in Boise (we live on the Ky side of the Ohio River opposite Cincinnati) and have flown out to visit her many times and because of that, we have driven from Seattle all the way down to the California line. Have visited all the states and have driven US 50 from Ocean City to Cincinnati and this May we plan on driving all the way to Sacramento then visit Napa then head up to Boise to visit her. Funny, we drove this spring up to the Canadian Rockies from and to Boise on Route 2 to Calgary, and did the Icefield PKY and such. We also drove Route 2 when visiting East Glacier when the Road to the Sun was closed due to snow. Saw my 1st Grizzly Bear when we got off Route 2 and took Route 89 to St. Mary's. If you haven't been to Glacier NP and driven the Road to the Sun you missed a beautiful drive and if you haven't done the Beartooth out of Red Lodge that is another great drive through the mountains. Thanks for the Route 2 idea for the drive back to Northern Ky. We are both retired so time isn't a problem.

@@davewear1361 great drives all of those! I have done the road to the sun and Beartooth and both were stunning as well! I’ll be doing Icefields this summer when my son and I drive from PA to Anchorage 😳 Definitely take Rt 2 home sometime it is a great drive. I especially enjoyed it across of the plain in MT and No Dakota. But take it all the way to Sault St Marie and then dip south through MI and back home. It’s beautiful driving through the upper peninsula. While add it stop by and see the beginning of the Mississippi River. Pretty neat as it’s a trickle where it starts. We drove over the first bridge over the Mississippi which is a far cry from the last bridge in New Orleans hehe. Enjoy your travels!!

How did it go?

@@Riceman-o1p Uh oh.

Really? That's cool I had no idea! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for watching glad you enjoyed! How far into Nevada are you going? The loneliest road stretch of Route 50 was by far my favorite on this drive.

@@baldrob3936 Hi Rob, I'm going to Vegas. So at some point I have to dip south. But I'd love to drive the Loneliest Road stretch to Reno.
