Coast to Coast to Coast USA Alger Tour of America 2008

Hello Everyone,

Today had us traveling from Aztec, NM to Williams, AZ via The Grand Canyon. About 350 miles. After breaking camp, we stopped at an old (of course) set of Anazazi ruins before we hit the road. We set out for The 4 Corners! Here's a shot of Grace, Russell, Maggie, Alice, & Spike milling around in 4 different states at once. Russell thought he would have a little nap in NM, AZ, CO, & UT all at once. Now that's an efficient way to add up some states.

Grace thought she would have a little snooze too. Good thing all these states are in the same time zone or else I'm sure something weird would happen. Don't worry Heather and Lori, the kids are fine.

John Horton was then given the reins of The Big Rig. I took a nap. Woke up nicely refreshed and Russell snapped this shot of these two grampy-looking friends teetering on The North Rim of The Grand Canyon. The scenery was awesome all across AZ and then you see The Grand Canyon and you start to cry. At least, I did. The Full-Timers crossed the 8000 mile threshold today!

John Horton then got something stuck in his eye and we rescued him from plummeting to a certain death shortly after this foto was taken.

Grace, Russell, and the dog.

Tonight, we are staying at the RV park of all RV parks. Had a nice dinner at a Sonoran BBQ joint. Up early tomorrow for a train ride back to The South Rim. Spike goes to the doggy spa. 

We have been getting your comments Aunt Diane and we are wishing Uncle Charles a speedy recovery! We wish you were with us Uncle Charles!

met vriendelijk groet,

California John
