April 16-25, 2022 Meteor Crater is located a half hour drive west of Winslow off of Interstate highway 40. I have never paid any attention to it in the past, thinking it was just another tourist trap type thing. You know, a big deal made out of something that’s pretty insignificant. However my son, Mathew (the traveler) and his family are going to make a point of stopping there this summer because of my grandson’s interest in Space. 🛸 That…
April 16-25, 2022 Near the Visitor Center’s parking lot, I saw a sign that said “cemetery “and an arrow pointing into the field by a path. I am always intrigued and interested in old-time cemeteries. So I ventured further to take a look at the first plaque and was surprised to discover that it was an early Mormon settlement cemetery! The introductory plaque Three cities and a fort were built by the Little Colorado River at the end of this…
April 16-25, 2022 The Park – The Sites Homo’lovi State Park is located just east of Winslow, Arizona. I had stayed here 2 years previously, during my trip back to Wisconsin. It is located in a wide open, grassland area with gentle hills. The whole area around Winslow does get quite windy. During the time I was there, on two separate days, the winds were in the 20 to 40 mph range. And on one day we had gusts that…

I want to record my travels from Arizona back to Wisconsin. I took in some really neat sights on the way to share, as well as just what the roads and scenery look like along that path. So this will be a first in a series of “Catching Up “ Leaving Krazy K, Camp Verde. Once I flew back to Arizona, I needed to get from the airport to the north side of Phoenix where my truck had been undergoing…
After sleeping on my favorite couch at Nathan’s I got up to see him off to work and visit with the girls before they got on the bus at 6:30 a.m. They have morning chores with all the bunnies 🐇 (and now baby chicks and two baby ducks! ) It’s a busy but relaxed morning, because they’re up by 5:30 a.m. And “who let the dogs out? Who? Who? ” 🎶 Me! 😅 🙄 The rabbits are great, but the…
Hello everyone! I thought I would bring this up to date before I filled in all the experiences on the way. I am currently in Chilton, Wisconsin and will be heading to Waupaca and parking my RV tomorrow. Sunday night I stayed at Meramec State Park, Missouri. It was a really nice campsite but the roads to get back to it were so hilly and curvy that it was probably the hardest drive for my truck yet! Oh my goodness!…
