Page, AZ



We left Moriarty, NM, on Thursday, 4/8/10, and headed west. We went to Holbrook, AZ, and spent the night there at the OK RV Park. Tom kept saying we'd been there before, but I didn't remember it at all. I checked my "Parks and Dates" document and not only had we stayed there but it was EXACTLY 3 years to the day! It was too strange. This morning we headed out fairly early and started going north on Highway 89 just inside the city limits of Flagstaff. The drive to Page, AZ, was one of the most beautiful drives I've traveled. The mountains were all different colors - red, pink, gray, etc., and every turn brought more gorgeous scenes. Time flew by as we drove along. Now we're in Page which is just 2 miles from Lake Powell. We are going to take a drive to the lake in the morning before we take off west again. It looks so blue from where we are. This whole little town is surrounded by mountains which are mostly red. How colorful. Tomorrow we'll head toward Zion National Park but won't actually go into the park until Sunday as they are booked until then. We'll be staying right in the park - we're excited. The weather is supposed to be good. We'll keep you posted on our adventures as we go along.
