Headed home

We set off for Flagstaff by way of the highway over the Hoover Dam. Because I was driving a motorhome, they had to inspect the inside of it. There was road construction the whole way. Evidently, they are building some humongous new road over the dam. The wind was blowing like hell, so I didn’t stop to take any pictures. We stayed in Williams at a very  nice KOA that had an indoor pool. It was so relaxing that we stayed an extra day and toured Williams. They have a great train ride up to the Grand Canyon that’ s an all day affair. It would be a fun thing to do sometime. The train station was unique and also the 66 Cafe.

We stayed in Springerville on Wednesday not realizing how close we were to the crazy people who escaped from Kingman. After lunch at the Buckhorn in San Antonio, we arrived in Elephant Butte on July 29: six weeks of adventure complete.

The next evening Carman cooked hamburgers for the Desert Haven gang. Everyone enjoyed the little reunion.

Note: for all my dear friends who actually pay attention to this blog, you will notice that I was a little slow with my final postings. Too much work to do and too much catching up with friends and family.
