9/24/08 You've All Heard About....

....Best Laid Plans. We had planned on staying in a FamCamp for two days in New Mexico. Scratch that. Not gonna happen.

We drove through to Williams, Arizona. We stayed here last spring just before we went to the Grand Canyon. It snowed the last time we were here. HA-HA! No chance of that happening this time around! It's HOT here!

Bob is insistent on telling me the temps in the area of Arizona where we're going to be very soon is topping out each day between 110 and 115 degrees. Bring it on! I'm ready! After all, our air conditioner works!

I took a few going down the road pictures today.

We saw smoke from a fire in the distance and kept an eye on it as we got closer.

It looks like a big fire whatever it is.

A little ways down the road we saw one of the message signs telling motorists that the US Forest Service was involved in a controlled burn. These houses look awfully close, I hope it IS controlled.

I heard on the news yesterday that a new storm (hurricane) is brewing down south. These cartoons came to mind when I heard that.

Thanks to Elaine of Lewes, DE for the cartoons!

Here's something else I'd like to share with you. Click on this link and just sit back and watch. This is just amazing. Watch for the elephant!

This is about it for today. We're just stopped for the night, ready to move on tomorrow.
