Thank you Tramonte ๐Ÿ™
The evening before was bizarreโ€ฆ too many people, standing or even sitting in the middle of the road, taking selfiesโ€ฆ shooting right into the sun.
We came back next morning and it was a lot better!

Rain will likely catch us on Friday on the way to the Colorado River.

Thanks Manel ๐Ÿ™
We were talking about you todayโ€ฆ at the Shafer trail overlook!
Couldnโ€™t get a picture because half was in shade ๐Ÿ˜ข!
But tomorrow at 8:00 am we will pick up a Jeep Rubicon for 24 hours.
Guess where weโ€™re going in that.
My daughter canโ€™t wait to drive the trail and some other places!

Wasnโ€™t really planning to shoot video.

A little drive in Monument Valley towards the
Totem pole butte formation.
The bugs on our windshield give away the bumpiness of the drive, but IPhone did a fine job of stabilizing the video!
Music playing is

On the way into Oatman, Arizona, on Route 66, the donkeys intercepted cars headed for town.
They blocked the road looking for treats.
Donkeys are common in town, but Iโ€™ve never seen them on the road so far from town. ๐Ÿค—

Because fall season is setting in and the trees are changing colors, I had to do a quick drive-by at the Oceanside beach.
Here it still feels like summer, only less crowded than it is in August ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™!
So, hereโ€™s 40 seconds of summer for anyone who wants it!

The trip is fun, and exploring the towns at either end is great too!
Durango is a great little city.

Eight miles across the water is the island of Lanai, waking up under a morning cloud cover.
