From Here to There

Life … On the Road Again

We had a preview of Grand Canyon at this stop at Little Colorado River.

Coleen is mesmerized by the size of Grand Canyon.

In the tower at Grand Canyon.

Deep and wide, deep and wide, …

Each is trying to take it all in. Emily, Glen, Claire, Mother, Coleen, and Polly

This canyon is massive.

Yes, we got through without scrapping the top.

Our Route 66 Experience

We had a good breakfast here on Route 66.

Dustin and Gabriel, this picture of a teardrop camper is for you all.

The ceiling and part of the walls were covered with dollar bills, and other things.

We stopped at Sileigman for a memory back in time. I remember when we had a 1958 Edsel that was black with red wings, push buttons for the transmission, and how I could hardly wait until we would get a new car so that it could sit out behind the barn so I could “drive” it, push the buttons and turn the steering wheel.

In this large picture, can you find … Glen?

It seems like we stop to get gas way too often!

Hackberry’s General Store on Route 66

Mother remembers the old wringer washer and was telling me how she had to turn the crank to feed the clothes through the wringer into another tub.

The ceiling inside at Hackberry’s.

Out back was an old shop with more antiques.

These Berma Shave signs were also behind the store.

BIG MISTAKE – MANY MAKE -- RELY ON HORN -- INSTEAD OF BRAKE -- BERMA SHAVE

And just look at this old Corvette. The man inside the store said it’s worth $150,000.00

Hoover Dam

A small scale model showing how the concrete was poured for the dam.

Hoover Dam

Wonderful electricity.

It was hot out there, 110 degrees.

We saw our “ride” from way over across the dam coming to pick us up.

… as a Quilter

I love the bright colors, lines, and designs …
