Good Morning All

We have made it to Arizona, it feels liek we are home, well maybe not home but after driving nearly 2000 miles in less than 48 hours…

Most of Texas I slept through, and at about 3:00 am MST Kevin woke me up to switch driving. I think we both hate New Mexico it was long, boring and they are spending mega millions on road construction… we should give it back to Mexico and let them pay for road improvements (I say this because the road wasn’t nearly as bad at that in Oklahoma! So it doesn’t really matter if Mexico fixes them or not.)

We have seen some interesting things along the road, which we have been diligently snapping pictures of as we go (we are getting good at staying on the road while being photographer (they have laws about cell phone usage but not picture taking!) Windmills were aplenty, cows and horses without fences, amazing rock formations, lots of very L O N G trains. At about 4 am quitely crossed over the Continental Divide.

We are currently driving parallel to Interstate 40 looking for breakfast… its hard to find food in the desert! And just before entering Arizona I pulled off along the interstate to snap a few beautiful images of the sun rising behind a rock steppe. Unfortunately Kevin was asleep and did not seee the sunrise so like all of you he will have to imagine it with the help of the photographs.

We are not too far from Flagstaff and after breakfast will be traveling to Winslow, AZ to a meteor crater, www.meterocrater.com Ok we found a coffeeshop where we hope we have found breakfast too! We’ll post again after we’ve seen the giant hole in the desert caused from a cosmic collision.
