The Past Month III

I am getting caught up a little bit at a time. You may want to start at the blog titled The Past Month to start getting caught up with us. We stopped in Gallup, NM for a night on our way to The Grand Canyon. I did do some laundry as the Laundromat was just down from our campsite. The place we stayed at advertised large lots. With our slides out, we were just a couple of feet from the ones next to us. Not large lots. But we were only staying one night, so we survived. We got up the next morning and headed to AZ. We decided to stop at the Meteor Crater since we had plenty of time to get to Williams, AZ for our 4 day stint at the Grand Canyon. This place was nothing fancy but it was amazing.100_3936 100_3944 100_3943 100_3949 You can look thru different viewers and you can see a large American Flag and a picture of a 6’ person. You cannot see them with the naked eye. 100_3962 100_3937 Our camper looked so small from up on the crater rim. We also saw a thunderstorm heading our way. That was neat. Had no idea how far away it was. After an hour or so looking around the crater, we headed to Williams, AZ for our stay there. We did hit rain on the way in but it was gone by the time we got to the park to set up. Thank goodness for that. I hate setting up in the rain. We got to Williams on Sat and on Sunday, we went to the Grand Canyon. That will be in a post all by itself. But I will show you the town of Williams.100_4401 This clock is by the visitor center.100_4384 Williams is such a quaint town to walk around. It has a great deal of charm. Plus it has the Route 66 running right thru the middle of it. 100_4387 100_4394 A nice little outdoor cafe. The next picture is of the guard rail that goes around the cafe. 100_4396 100_4407 We also took a trip down to Sedona and the scenery there was beautiful. I’m not going to put pictures from there on the blog. Pictures just don’t do it justice. You need to go there yourself one day. The next blog will be of the Grand Canyon.
