Holbrook, AZ




A long and windy day - with snow right down at the I-40 level as we passed through the higher elevations in AZ (Flagstaff and that area). Holbrook is rather desolate, but don't tell anyone I said that. The people are friendly - just the environment is desolate.

Tomorrow is our longest day, over 500 miles. We'll be on the western end of Amarillo tomorrow night. After that the scenery should improve. Oklahoma is generally greener than Texas, but it is early in spring. We're hoping for the best.

Pic #1 is Holbrook - I think those are petrified trees in the photo.
Pic #2 is Ed looking out the Comfort Inn window. He's wondering what in the heck has happened to his happy home in SLO.
Pic #2 is in Seligman, AZ. Bob wanted me to say that this is our motel for the night. Ha!

Gas and diesel prices are amazingly high. I paid $4.399 this morning in Barstow for gas; Bob paid the same in Seligman for diesel. We're hoping for lower prices soon!

Hi to friends and family.
