Day 30 - Sedona to Tombstone AZ

Today, we left Sedona and headed for Tucson, AZ. We had planned to spend the night in Tucson, AZ, , but after looking at the miles we had to drive across AZ and Texas, we decided to drive to Tombstone, AZ, meet some old friends, and leave very early tomorrow morning for our venture into Texas. It was an easy drive, and Sheila drove part way. Easy drive, but ran into construction again all the way from Sedona. Hated to leave Sedona and the rock formations there for the prairies in AZ, and took photos, but no real excitement.

Tried to post photos on tonight's blog, but we apparently have a poor internet connection, and I can't post them tonight. We had such a wonderful time in Sedona and the Grand Canyon, and hated to leave. Met a lot of interesting people in Sedona, ranging from our helicopter pilot and the pilot and co-passenger on our flight to the Grand Canyon. Also unforgettable were the couple from Australia that we met on the Pink Jeep tour, a couple from Michigan who try to go to the Bonneville Salt Flats each year to race his 1955 Vincent motorcycle (slightly modified). It was too wet to run it this year, but his highest speed on the thing was 230 mph. Oh, by the way, the guy was about 2 or 3 years older than I am.

Then there was the woman at the swimming pool last night that never shut up from the moment we walked into the pool until we left. All she did was complain about her health and her husband never said a word. He was probably tired of listening to her. So were we. She was very disappointed that we weren't going up Interstate 40 when I ran into her this morning at the motel when I was packing the Vette. K
Continue to have fun and a lot of laughs S
