Where the spirit leads the feet will follow.
Down distant paths for unmapped miles.
Heads forget but hearts remember:
The art of living knows no bounds.

Wupatki National Monument

A Native American ruins site north of Flagstaff Arizona.
 


 






















We found out later we missed the main ruin site located behind the monument visitor's center, which was closed when we were there.

Old Route 66

We drove a portion of Old Route 66 through Arizona, starting at Golden Shores (near the California border) to Winslow. It was a fun day with a lot of stops visiting several of the old landmark places along the way.
 

We stopped for a roadside breakfast on the way up to Oatman.
