It's Fri. (18th) already!

It was Wed. when I last blogged. On Wed. we left the Salt Lake City area and went to Bryce Canyon, Utah. Wow....what a beauty. Some folks think it is prettier than the Grand Canyon. We stayed there for 2 nights. Saw plenty of mule deer and pronghorns. We also saw baby hummingbirds feeding. We rarely see them back home. We stayed at Ruby's R.V. Park right outside of the Canyon. I think we were the minorities to lots of German and French speaking folks. While the days would be 80 degrees, the nights would be in the 40's.

We headed to Williams, AZ today (from Bryce). We went right through the Painted Desert. Gods hand was definitely into this one.....there were places where I could imagine Him doing sand art...you know what I mean....when you take sand and mix it with water and drizzle it to make sand castles. There were areas that looked like He had done this....just for us. I have never seen anything like it. It took us 7 1/2 hrs. to cover 325 miles today as we climbed to 7400 elevation...through the desert. I think Joli was affected by the ride. She didn't seem herself until we pulled into the R.V. park and she could take a long walk. We are staying at the Grand Canyon Railroad R.V. Park. It was mentioned to us because we can buy the railroad tickets to take us to the Grand Canyon right here....and catch the train. So we will visit it tomorrow (Sat.). It is to be in the 70's by day and in the 30's at night! On Sunday, we will go to Sedona. Williams, AZ is a great location to see several things (or places). They tell me that I might see some tarantulas (NO!!!) and other spiders but that seeing a scorpion here is unlikely because it isn't hot enough. Whew. We gained another hour....now we are 3 hrs. behind home. So far, to date, we have traveled a total of 3, 913 miles. Tomorrow (Sat.) marks 2 wks. into our vacation. We are thoroughly enjoying every bit of it.

Some of you have made comments here. I will post comments to your comments on the page you posted them initially! Got that? So take a look there....and hopefully I won't have a problem doing it. Also, I will post more pictures as I get them. Then you will see Bryce Canyon for yourself...but the pictures never take the place of the real thing. I did not have WIFI at the campground at Bryce (Ruby's). These places will tell you they have it in their ads but when you get settled into your campsite, you can't get it....oh bother. It makes blogging difficult for me....who is already challenged here (on internet)! I am glad I can pull it from my campsite here. We'll be here a few days. Lookout!!!
Good night,
Mary
