Williams, Arizona
This was our first stop on what was to become the greatest 3 week road trip that my husband Todd and I took with my sister Mary Ann and her husband Tim. We were each traveling in our own motorhome, which btw, is the perfect way to travel and really enjoy life on the road. These great States of our sure offer up more then enough adventure and excitement for every degree of desire and there is no better way to take advantage then to amble across the country in an RV.
There is much to say about Williams Arizona, but first, what an awesome town to visit nestled at the entrance to the Grand Canyon. We spent our days exploring the backroads in our jeep, bicycling, hiking the trails and walking around the rustic town of Williams. And of course our train trip to the Gran Canyon National Park was truly the highlight. Williams offered up some interesting characters along with good old home food and drinks.
Every day you could count on a late afternoon thunder and lightening storm that brought with it a shower of rain. Once the storm passed over us the sun would reappear in time for an evening of serene and breathtaking sunsets. This was the perfect backdrop for our nightly communal dinners in the living area that our RV's created. There is nothing better then the taste of food when it is prepared on the BBQ and I must add that my brother-in-law makes the very best ribs in the western United States. Sounds like a Bobby Flay challenge, doesn't it?
I can say with utmost certainty that we will visit this sleepy little town in the future and can't hardly wait for that day to come.
Did I mention that we travel with our three dogs, Joey our Beagle, Lucy Liu our long haired Chihuahua and KoKo (whom many consider an additional appendage of mine) our short haired Chihuahua. They are the biggest reason we bought an RV so we could take them with us wherever we go. Sure beats having to leave them at the kennel, it always killed me to walk away and abandon them for however long we would be gone.
Bare with my while I learn all of the ins and outs of blogging. My next lesson will be how to link each blog to a photo album. Featured in this picture is me and Joey and my sister Mary Ann and her husband Tim. Until next time.
What a great adventure. Love the picture.
