Loving the political, social and financial implications of filling up at the low-cost Gas War station on historic Highway 99, aka the Golden State Highway, between LA and Sacramento.
Gas War (in Earlimart, CA) is perhaps cheaper than any other filling station on 424.8 mile-long Highway 99, which was ranked at the top of the fifty most dangerous roads in the US in 2016. Don’t be surprised if there’s no windshield cleaner.
About Joel
Joel Stratte-McClure has been a global trekker since the 1970s. He lived in France for over 30 years, working as a journalist, before he turned his attention to a unique life-time-project of walking the shores of the Mediterranean. The first 4,401 kilometers are explored in his inspirational and entertaining first book "The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean." The next 4,401 kilometers are covered in the gods-filled sequel, "The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean,” published on Valentine's Day 2013. The last 4,401 kilometers will be discussed in the last book of the trilogy currently entitled "The Idiot and the Odyssey III: Alexander the Great Walks the Mediterranean."
