We've made it to Arizona!! Yesterday's drive was a shorter one. This was great because it gave us a chance to get some r & r. We were going to go sight seeing but decided to get some grub and hang out in the hotel. Flagstaff is really pretty, though. It reminds me of Oregon because of all the pine trees ( I think they are pine, maybe I should ask my tree expert, Jrod Tuck :o) ). Very nice town. And it is really clean. We know we are getting closer because we saw a sign for Los Angeles!!! It said 492 miles away - not so far considering how much we've traveled :o). We had some excitement in yesterday's drive. We drove through a crazy storm that had hail mixed in with it and then we had a little bit of traffic coming through Flagstaff. But other than that, we have no other problems. It's been great :o). Below are some pics of the amazing state of New Mexico.







The storm we drove through was crazy. It was fine driving through it - no problems, but what made it crazy was that we could see where it began and where it ended. It was a huge storm and here are some of the pics:












Arizona was not as amazing on the landscape as New Mexico. But here are some pics so far:










Here's some of "Little T"
