We pulled out of Balloon Fiesta Park before 7:00 a.m. this morning, to beat the crowd of RV'ers that would be pulling out shortly. We had an uneventful 6 hour trip to Flagstaff today and were parked and hooked up ready to go by 3:00 today. We grabbed a bite to eat and took a short drive around town to get a lay of the land so to speak. We came across Lowell Observatory, perched high above the city and is only a few miles from our campground. It has three 2-story telescopes and they offer tours daily and even offer several nightly tours to look at the stars...we're adding that to the agenda for sure.
As for tomorrow, we've settled on heading to the Grand Canyon. We're catching the Grand Canyon Railway in Williams Arizona early tomorrow morning, which is just a short drive from our campsite here in Flagstaff. It's a 2 hour train ride into the Grand Canyon and return...and we're hoping for lot's of terrific scenery. Once there, they offer free shuttles throughout the Canyon that we'll take to check out the different areas of the south rim. So, that about wraps it up for today...we made it safely to Flagstaff and are planning on staying here at Black Bart RV Park for the next week. Can't wait to see what tomorrow has in store, so until later~

We are just now turning off of I-40 on to I-17 towards Phoenix, and wondering if you will get rain tonight - Sedona is a beautiful place to visit and Oak Creek Canyon- that is where the Red Rocks are. Check it out if you get a chance. 72 Campers from the Rally were at the Park we stayed at last night - we just took Long Showers and rested up - looks like we will make it home tonight. Penny & Tom
