Mahgrit’s post pretty much says it all. I enjoy driving so the miles behind the wheel don’t bother me. An interesting thing is the subtle change in the landscape from New Mexico to Arizona. The colors and the shapes are different. Still very beautiful.

The last week or so we have been at altitudes of between 6,000 to 8,000 feet. For some reason I still feel the effects of being at the higher altitudes. I noticed it again when we walked down and back up at the crater today. It wasn’t bad but I was puffing a bit. That is the extent of it I have no problems with headaches or nausea but, I feel I should be over this.

Tomorrow we head for the Grand Canyon. I am looking forward to this. It is a bucket item for sure.
