Almost ready to go

---

It is with mixed emotions that we head out; the weather here has been so perfect yielding early spring weather, buds on the maple tree , robins and ducks returning and shoots in the ground. Recently we have had a first sighting ever of a grey wolf on the road and a morning dove in a nearby tree.
But the open road has its own lure and we have thoughts of new places to see. This trip we will zig-zag across the USA to arrive in Flagstaff AZ by Apr.13th. We think the drive to Flagstaff is 2300 miles.
Most of the trip is pretty open-ended as to where we will go, other than 2 nites in the Grand Canyon National Forest.
The hardest part right now is just to get out of here. There are many things to be attended to. Once again we are pleased to have our sitter, Ruth, looking after the pets.
We'll blog whenever we can from local libraries.
