Standin' on a corner in Winslow, AZ

The tag line is compliments of The Eagles' "Take it Easy". We made less progress, mileage wise, than yesterday. Only made it from Gallup, NM to Winslow, AZ.
The entire day, save driving time, was spent at the Painted Desert and Petrified Forest National Park. When we entered the park, we were told we could drive the park, all 28(?) miles of it in about 90 minutes. We spent about 6 hrs there and left the park as the gates were closing.
Magnificent for starters. Or maybe this was like our New Zealand OOA experience, OOA being "Out of Adjectives". Our maybe it was similar to last fall's photo safari experience in South Africa. Where we were totally awestruck by nature and wildlife. As we were today, without the wildlife aspect.
Tis an incredible world and country.
This will be much shorter than my two previous wordy epistles. And our style of his and hers perspectives won't be present tonight, and possibly not for the next couple of days. There is no internet connectivity in the room, and there is none at our next stop, the Grand Canyon.
This is being typed in the lobby of a beautiful hotel built by Fred Harvey hotels in 1930 for the Santa Fe RR. It is on right in the railroad tracks, with its own siding. However, the days of passenger trains are long long past. The La Posada closed in 1957, a rather good year, and was restored and reopened in 1997. It is a beautiful place.
I went through one 4gb card on the camera today + ??? space on the 2nd card. I'll upload pics when I finish editing and find a place with bandwidth to upload them.
That's all folks!

A next morning addition...Nancy had called the hotel restaurant while I was out taking some pix. She didn't make a reservation (no need) and didn't leave her name. When we went to the restaurant, she was greeted with "You just called? I didn't get your name so I just wrote down "Texas" based on your accent."
