Grand Canyon Day

But first, laundry.  Simply partially dry two loads then ask the front desk for a drying rack.  We settled for the folding crib spread between two beds.

Or simply dry everything in the hotel dryer and it will be 2 sizes smaller.  Our stuff is shrinking fast enough as it is.

We got on the road north after 11 and took the scenic route.  Flagstaff is really beautiful, we could like it here if it wasn't at 7000 ft.  Was broken to overcast at the Canyon, but awesome just the same.


I swear, that wall was cracked before I sat down!



First changing Aspens we've seen, and it is Oct 24th.

Tomorrow on to Petrified Forrest after getting the 10,000 mile check up on the Prius.  Then we are headed for New Mexico; provided we can get across the border.  Teri just notified me that we won't need the passports once we get out of Arizona.
