Flagstaff AZ now, we stopped to rest, watch the Eagle's play do some laundry and of course plan the big visit to The Grand Canyon tomorrow.
Today we had a wonderful time traveling from Phoenix up to Se dona where we stopped for a day in the town. We shopped then drove thru the "Red Rock Country" where they have monoliths in the Coconino National Forest which they call these unique mountain cliffs such names as The Coffeepot, The Cathedral and Snoopy because of their distinctive objective shapes.
We have taken 97 pictures today of this place alone, but can only share 15-20 with you as it takes so much time to upload these pictures to the Internet. Its even harder when the hotel has a cheap wireless system. Hope you enjoy the few we have posted.
A note from a friend we wish to share:
The governoment wants us to cut the amount of gas we use on this trip.....
The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants!
That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down.....
Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the Border....
When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq ...
Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military.....
Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it.....
After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country.....
He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot......
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.....
If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo..... Problem solved.....
Thank You for the note, as we continue this 12,000 mile gas eating trip about this beautiful county of ours not the illegal immigrants
