After Carol and Ned left, we opted to stay an extra day, get some laundry done, and relax. We hadn't realized how tiring the cold, bouncing, and shaking could be on the train. The leaves were starting to fall some and so it was cool, crisp and had the great Autumn smell of leaves and damp ground. Got some reading done and worked on the blog. Next day we left and headed for Hillerman country. For those not familiar with Tony Hillerman, he wrote detective/mysteries about life on the Indian Reservations in the Four Corners area. Trish has read most of his books and wanted to drive through some of the towns mentioned and get a feel for the area. We headed south through sandstone and distant buttes and began climbing in elevation. Eventually we came ... read more

We drove through main drag in Las Vegas to see the buildings. It ... read more

Today turns out to be a day of rest. We tryed to make reservations inside the Grand Canyon beginning today but they only had availability starting tomorrow the 17th. We made reservations at the Yavapai Lodge for four(4) nights beginning on the 17th. We chose to stay put at the Hampton Inn in Henderson. You always know what you're going to get at a Hampton Inn but this one had a little extra - a lady named Teresa who prepares the breakfast. Aside from being a lovely person with a wonderful smile, she makes a really nice breakfast to start your day. Henderson is a nice little surburb of Las Vegas with plenty of shopping, dining and, of course, casinos. Casinos not being our cup of tea, we decide on the movie Seven Phycopaths, for a ... read more
