6/11/12 Monday Long, Long Highway!!

Well we did the same morning routine today, pretty much. Although Steve and I both call the VA in OKC to try to find out when and where his shots are. To tell the truth--they don't know--and they said they would call us back-- but they haven't. The plan for tomorrow is to call them every hour I guess until we find out some kind of answer. Anyway, we loaded up the dogs and about 11:30 AM we started the drive to Jerome. WOW, that is a crazee drive--twists and hairpin turns, up and down. It is a cute town, lots of shops. It is like Branson, MO in that to get anywhere you have to walk uphill in every direction. Also it has tourist prices: $27.00 for 2 wraps, 2 pops, and chips!! The drive was so curvy it was almost like a roller coaster and at one time I thought I might toss my cookies, and I have ridden over a lot of mountain roads. Very steep drops off also!! I would upload more pictures, but the wifi here is very slow and has a poor signal. Makes it a very long process to put in pics. Next we drove to Sedona-- more twists and turns and the really pretty part was on the north side of Sedona, where there is water (a creek). Lovely rocks on both sides of the road. Steve decided to buy a board to put between the jump seats in back of the pickup. He wants Rufus to sit on this instead of sitting in the front seat. Rufus does crowd!! When we got almost to Flagstaff we found the Ft. Tuthill recreation area where the Luke Air Force Base Fam Camp is. We thought it looked like a good place to be in the spring with the RV. Got home about 6:30 or 7:00 PM AZ time. Ate sandwiches, yogurt, and fruit. Going to bed soon, we are tired!!! Hard to figure out how this sightseeing can make a person sooooo tired.
