BACK TO THE MOTORHOME IN GLENDALE, AZ.

We left Clifton, CO yesterday morning just after 9 am and spent the night in Tuba City, AZ at the Navajo Land Hotel.  Nice hotel but the lumpiest bed I've slept on in a long time.  We took a slightly different route home going by Monument Valley.  We didn't stop as we were out of time with all the other stops I made for photos.    We had a shorter drive today leaving the hotel at 8:30 and getting home to the motorhome about 12:30.  We had a small amount of snowfall in Clifton one morning but we had dry roads the whole trip!

We had a great time visiting our friends in Clifton/Grand Junction and lots of card games and meals together.  The memorial for our friend Ken was a great tribute to him.  I cropped a photo of Ken out of a larger group photo I had taken last fall and enlarged it to 11x14 then framed it and they put it up front during the service.  I took quite a few photos during the memorial and put them on a flash drive for Marie and she has them displaying on an electronic picture frame in her house

At the first rest stop after leaving Grand Junction we could see a bit of snow up high.

The further west along I-70 we went, the closer we got to the snow.

No, he's not about to plunge off the cliff.  This old Jeep is well anchored to the rock but it does make you wonder at first.  Right below it is a tourist attraction called Hole in the Wall.

That isn't a Highland bull in Wilson Arch, it's a couple taking a selfie.

I zoomed in to show the people better.

Zooming in tighter with my camera, you can see that there isn't much holding it in place.

If you saw the movie Forrest Gump, you might remember this spot just north of Monument Valley.  Run Forrest Run!
