... garage behind some businesses on Highway 89A, the main drag. The view from the garage, the GARAGE, was gorgeous. You can't get a bad view in this town.<br>It makes me hurt to see houses built on scarlet cliff ledges, restaurants on the banks of Oak Creek, fast food junksters below wind swept rock pillars. <br>You can't duplicate this setting. There's only one. <br>It should've been a national park. No place on earth deserves it more.

... the border! Turned out to be<br>just more Indian stalls oops. <br>Set off back to the hostel, 4 hours<br>of driving. It began to snow just past Cameron and steadily got heavier<br>until all Charlotte could see was the vehicle in front and sheets of<br>heavy snow hitting the windscreen. Drove at 20mph for quite a while<br>until we reached Flagstaff where the snow hadn't yet reached and the<br>roads were nice and clear! Quite a relief to make it back, expecting<br>heavy snow overnight!

... Monument, really cool cliff dwelling. On the way home we hit Walnut Canyon National Monument, now this place was awesome, you climb down into a hidden canyon and follow a trail that takes you thru 25 cliff dwelling rooms. You feel like Indian Jones at this park and I would suggest that if you are in the area it&#8217;s a must see. So now we are off to the wedding and for the ...

... e au lobby de l'hôtel ; petit déj au bord de la piscine evidement.  Départ pour notre premier parc de l'ouest, le grand canyon. Le ciel reste chargé de nuages ce qui allège le taux de clim à appliquer dans l'habitacle de notre superbe Toyota Corola rouge. Nous aurions préféré avoir à notre disposition une voiture plus "patriotique" pour ne pas éveiller d'éventuelles sensibilités des gens du cru...  Conduite zen pour se couler dans les ...

We hadden overigens besloten om voor de zuiderlijke ingang van de Grand Canyon te kiezen, omdat er een kans was dat de noordelijke dicht zou zijn. We schoten lekker op, het waren echt van die hele lange wegen die naar de horizon leken te lopen. Plotseling begonnen auto's te remmen. En voor we het wisten stonden we in een file!! In the middle of nowwhere...dit is nooit een goed teken. Al helemaal niet toen opeens een ambulance langs kwam met loeiende sirene. Op een gegeven ...

... train pull into the station we headed back along the south rim and headed out the eastern exit, stopping to take more pictures of course. This place is definitely a unique one to visit with it's contrasting layers of rock formed over millions of years, great valleys and streams/rivers you can just make out on the canyon floor. We then headed back to Flagstaff for a well deserved drink having been driving, walking, looking, driving some more and taking pictures for about 8 hours!

... the Very Large Array Radio Telescope in New Mexico. There he has discovered that their 25 year old technology that limits their discoveries is being updated to state of the art technology that will enable scientists to see much further back in time, analyze data at a much faster speed, and see much more information. He knows that this new technology will provide the answers that mankind is looking for. He has also come to the realization ...

... 28th Sept. 29-Oct. 4 At our membership park in Bullhead City, Arizona - a couple of wind- down days. Oct. 4 - Oct. 9 At our "home" membership park in Menifee/Sun City, California Oct. 9 - Oct. 13 Moving back near our old neighborhood at an affiliated membership camp- ground (Fisherman's Retreat) in Redlands, CA so that Rose can be around to take pictures after her friend Emily's second baby ...

... thing to touch something that contained unknown elements from outer space. After we explored Meteor Crater's visitor's center we left to go see a different type of rock at the Petrified Forest National Park. There were large petrified logs of trees all over the place that fell nearly 225 million years ago. After the trees fell, swollen streams carrying silt, mud, and volcanic ash covered the trees which slowed their decay. Gradually, silica replaced the original wood ...

... condors, and a golden eagle circling overhead. Some of the geological features of the Canyon are known as buttes (pronounced 'butes'), which are free-standing pillars of rock rising out of the Canyon floor. The largest ones led to hilarious comments of "what a beaut!" which left us in stitches. After spending about five hours exploring the South Rim, we decided that it was time to start heading back, and left at around 4pm as we wanted to get back before it got dark and ...
