Flagstaff Arizona

This is our initial posting, since we are using a weather day to try our hand at a blog. We hope to share our travels as we continue to see the country in our motorhome. As I write I am looking out on a light snow fall. It is expected to be a rainy and snowy day and evening, so we are staying close to home today.

This trip began with a service stop in Gaffney, SC, at the Freightliner Custom Chassis factory. After a thorough once over we headed west stopping for the night in: Jasper, AL; Russellville, AR; Shamrock, TX; and Albuquerque, NM.

Albuquerque was the first day of sightseeing. Old Town and a fabulous lunch at the Church Street Cafe was followed by a trip to Sandia Peak and a trip to the top via cable car.

Albuquerque was followed by Holbrook, AZ, and trips to Canyon de Chelly and the Petrified Forest.

We are now in Flagstaff, AZ, and using it as a base for visits to the Grand Canyon (yesterday), Meteor Crater and other sights in this area of northern Arizona.

See the links at upper right for photos and current location.
