Yesterday I got the news that our mail scheduled for 5/30 would arrive on 5/31, when we were scheduled to be 200 miles North at The Grand Canyon. So, I sojourn to the camp office and extend our stay until Saturday. I do not like to travel on Saturday as the roads are full of weekenders trying to escape the oncoming reality of Blue Monday.
This morning I got an email notifying me that our mail was at the local Cottonwood, Az post office ready for pick-up!
We had a wonderful day on an excursion with the Verde Valley Railroad. Of course there was some confusion in my mind when I saw this sign. I waited in this lot for about a half hour until I realized that they did not in fact park trains here, there were no rails. Was I wrong to assume so?
I took to many pictures to show here. Please click on the link below to see them. The ride was 4 hours, there was good A/C in the inside cars and each car was followed by an open car for sight seeing. Light snack and Adult Beverages were served, the crowd was fun. The Experienced citizens of $49 was fair when you realized this was the only revenue this line makes.
We had dinner at the local Moose Lodge which was having their weekly ‘Family Dinner’ which consisted of roast chicken, a potato casserole, veggie, desert and coffee for $7. Add up 2 Shiners for me and it was only $25 if you count all the lottery tickets we bought.
As you can see they had (and always have) a large crowd. Friday night is steak fry, how can I miss it!
Last minute change, we got our mail! Being afraid the bill collectors will catch us, we will move to The Grand Canyon tomorrow.
