I'm not sure how "epic road trip from Salisbury, NC to Western NY." is on Route 66, but if you are road tripping to LA, I live on Route 66. This post is redeemable for 1 free Beer for each of you at Instant Karma if you stop in Joplin, Mo.
Opps Fixed.... We are firming up our route now. We will only be hitting Route 66 here and there on our trip, I think. We will be taking Interstate 40 from Salisbury most of the way across the country.
Ahh, 40 south of me. We are on 44 which connects Chicago and St. Louis to Oklahoma City. Well, if you want to take a 3-6 hour scenic route for a free beer, hit me up.
Interstate 44 starts in St. Louis and goes southwest. It does not go to Chicago.
Well, I'll be it does turn into Interstate 55. I have only driven to Chicago once, and it was unpleasant. At the time the speed limit was still 55, and I have tried to black it out from memory.
I was born and raised in Southern Illinois just 30 miles from St. Louis and I now live in the Chicago suburbs. On top of that I drive down every other week for client work. I can almost drive I-55 in my sleep now.

@Minion-Queen would be cheaper to ship them?

Our lab is officially moving to a Colocation America Data Center in Los Angeles California. @art_of_shred and I will be leaving the Western NY office on Sunday May 15th and working in North Carolina Monday-Tuesday then heading out on an epic road trip from Salisbury, NC to Los Angeles, CA. Keep an eye out for pics all along Route 66.
And you didn't invite me to go with you?!

We have a contract with some of the Vendors who have given us the equipment that they will not be shipped. So hand delivery is the only option.

On 13 hours one way car trip was enough....

I've gotten better since then, I promise! That was my first trip like that! ROFL I'm a seasoned vet now.

And once you figure in shipping and insurance on some of these it would be a bit more than a road trip.

Remember, in two months I covered the eastern seaboard, went to the west coast, back to the east coast, and back to NY. All in two months....lol

And not nearly as much fun!

@FATeknollogee We're super excited to be partnering with NTG for this Lab! We're providing some top notch data center space in our Quinby Building facility--a full-rack (42u) high density cabinet (10KVA), an IP range, and a 100 MB/s Dedicated GigE port, with 30TB bandwidth.
And, @Minion-Queen and @art_of_shred will be joined by our mascot Coly for their road trip, so they won't be totally alone.

@Minion-Queen On the road again! Just can't wait to get on the road again!
Are you and @art_of_shred going the southern route? There's an amazing BBQ place in the MIDDLE OF NOWHERE in TexArkana that has the best fried green tomatoes I've ever had in my life.
-
We are going to cut across 40 from NC to Las Vegas going to do the whole Grand Canyon thing

@Minion-Queen has a list of things that won't kill her that is much shorter than the list of things that will...lol

That is awesome, Grand Canyon is totally worth the stop. I'm quite surprised how much I enjoyed the Grand Canyon on my visit last year. I'd like to go back sometime and do a rim to rim hike.

We have never gone this far west (well I have been to Vegas but that was an in and out trip). We hope to do lots of cool fun things on our trip.

@Minion-Queen You might consider a brief stop in Monument Valley as well, it is quite impressive. The four corners might be another quick stop too.

Hey, if you're going to LA anyways, stop by Los Gatos and see all the Pertino guys! @Josh , @CraigElliott , and the rest!
