October 15, 2012


October 15, 2012

Today started off like yesterday, but as we got further east the scenery changed.  We drove up and down mountains, and through scrubby cedar trees which soon changed to pine forest.  After Flagstaff things got scrubby again.

In Williams, we stopped at McDonalds and shared an order of pancakes for breakfast.  We like their pancakes!

When we got to Winslow we parked at Walmart.  The temperature was 71°...good cashing weather! 

We took advantage of the great weather, finding some very interesting caches.  One in particular was at a beautiful old hotel.  If we’d had the time, we could’ve spent the entire day looking at the displays on the history of La Posada, built in 1930.

At another cashe, an Indian woman walking her grandchildren home from school, thought we were looking at the berries on the juniper.  She gave us a lesson on how edible they are.  She was very nice to talk to.  We didn’t explain geocaching to her, but it really was interesting listening to her.

Tomorrow we cross into New Mexico.  

Today’s Travel Totals:  Miles traveled, 202---Caches, 9.
