Wednesday, September 20, 2017 - Here we are arriving in New Mexico. Dora and Boots like New Mexico! Another odd Rest Area. It's surrounded by mountains!

09.19.17 Petrified Forest and Painted Desert on Route 66 in Arizona
On the first impression, the Petrified Forest may not sound very appealing as it comprises stone log fragments scattered over a rather remote and otherwise featureless section of the Arizona desert. Apparently, it comes as a little disappointment to some, like us, who expect the trees still to be standing in thick rocky groves instead… Continue reading 09.19.17 Petrified Forest and Painted Desert on Route 66 in Arizona
09.18.17 Route 66 on the way to the Petrified Forest, Arizona
Monday, September 18, 2017 - When we left Williams, Arizona we drove down Route 66, when we could, on our way to the Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert. I say "when we could" because it doesn't exist everywhere it use to. In some places Route 66 has simply been replaced with I-40. In… Continue reading 09.18.17 Route 66 on the way to the Petrified Forest, Arizona
09.16.17 Grand Canyon South Rim, Arizona
Saturday, September 16, 2017 - Two years ago we visited both the North and the South Rims of the Grand Canyon. It was amazing then and is still an amazing creation of God's to see.

09.17.17 Our first look at Route 66 in Williams, Arizona
Sunday, September 17, 2017 - Route 66 starts in California and goes all the way to Illinois. We are driving the portion from Williams, Arizona to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Williams, Arizona is known as the last town to be bypassed by Interstate 40.

Wednesday, September 13, 2017 - We have loved the beauty of Utah, all of it. This was a state we barely visited two years ago when we came out west. We're correcting that mistake this year! We stayed at what first seemed to be an odd RV Park but it turned out to be very… Continue reading 09.13.17 Paradise View RV Park and Cowboy’s Smokehouse in Panguitch, Utah

Monday, September 11, 2017 - We must never forget the attack in 2001 on our country. Never Forget. Last Thursday we took a tour of Salt Lake City, Utah.
