Waving goodbye to Distant Drums, we headed out this afternoon on our way to Petrified Forest National Park. There is no camping in the National Park. The only camp sites in the immediate area are RV Parks. Based on google reviews of the local RV parks we begrudgingly made reservations at the Holbrook, AZ KOA for the night.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s drive took us back through Flagstaff and we took the opportunity to visit a local dog wash. The filthy beast needs a scrubbing\u2019. With a refreshed and fluffed golden we continued East along Rt 40 following the old Rt 66.<\/p>\n

Kelly stopped more than a few times today at various roadside shops and stands to peer at the local wares. We both got a kick out of various locations along the old Rt 66. including the \u2018Standin\u2019 on a Corner\u2019 monument in Winslow, AZ. If this reference doesn\u2019t hit you right between the eyes, Google the song \u2018Take it Easy\u2019 by the Eagles. They even have a flatbed Ford parked right out front for photos. We\u2019re not sure it\u2019s possible for someone from our generation to pass through Winslow on Rt 40 without stopping for a picture here.<\/p>\n

We passed through a couple of mountain passes outside of Flagstaff today that had our poor truck really struggling. One pass in particular stands out. The truck reached a low speed of about 38mph and we got passed by a Jeep Wrangler. Being Jeep owners, we can confidently say that if you get passed by a Wrangler on the highway you\u2019re going REALLY slow.<\/p>\n

Pulling into the KOA this evening we found the little park to be better than our expectations. It looked relatively well taken care of and many improvements were new. There was a staffed onsite concession advertising all-you-can-eat pancakes for $2.99. We might have to check that out! Of course, on an evening when we\u2019re not worried about our cell signal for Kelly\u2019s work the next day we find ourselves with one of the strongest signals we\u2019ve seen on this trip this evening.
