standing on the corner in Winslow AZ

24 miles and 12 days from meeting up with UE, AL, and S&S Yahooo let the tequilla flow!!! Today we decided to go to the Petrified Forest / painted desert National park. I know the pictures will not do it justice but AWSOME really comes to mind. I don't know how we won this land but it still isn't civilized!!! I noticed that Kemosabee Big Dog kept his locks tucked in his helmet just incase. The park ran for about 38 miles and at each turn of the road you had to stop in awe. After leaving there we eventually met up with Rt 66 again and went through Holbrook AZ - there was a an original diner Joe's and Adele - I mean neon sign and all - had to stop for lunch. sign the book, etc., believe it or not the last person to sign it was from Charlestown MA - go figure. Since Arizona does not subscribe to Daylight Savings time we gained another hour. So if you get these blogs later and later its because we're off the charts oops I mean maps haha - well I think that this is it for gaining time - it sure is going to hurt when we start losing it. After lunch we then proceeded to recreate the song "take it easy" (I think that's what its called) and rode through Winslow Az - It was pretty depressed but I'm still singing the song so I guess it worked. Soooo now that we have all this time I say GO WEST - so "Californina here I come" is in the mix.....this is even better than I could have imagined. I know, I know, the stock market is in the toilet but even that can't diminish this area of the world. We are now out of the desert and into the hills and forest of Flagstaff....it just keeps getting better. Hope all is well with you - I feel priviliged and blessed to be able to do this. Love you guys Happy flame and smiling Big Dog
