Yesterday in Albuquerque we didn’t have any WiFi at our RV site so I wasn’t able to post. Today we drove to Flagstaff AZ. We have still lucked out with no minor disasters AND our tape job on the roof is still holding out. Hip-hip-hurah Yesterday we parked next to a young couple, the wife is a Jockey. Several days ago she was thrown from her horse, right out of the gate, got tangled in the reins and thrown under the horse. She has 2 broken legs one in 4 places, broken collar bone and contusions everywhere. She had just been released from the hospital when we arrived, after a 3 day stay. I don’t know her but we could sure add her to our prayers chain.

I took a few more photos of the countryside and one of the Laguna Pueblo Mission. History lesson for today. The Laguna mission was built in 1699. In 1680 the Laguna tribes were the first to successfully revolt against the Spanish. They expelled them for 12 years. Present day Laguna Indians value intellectual activity and education . The mining of Uranium as contributed to present day educations funds and scholarship programs. Today there are many well educated Laguna people and they have one of the largest U.S. contact companies in Iraq. A Laguna Pueblo Indian , Cliff Fragua carved a statue that sits in the Statuary Hall in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington DC. It’s a statue of Po’pay (Pope’) the leader of the revolt. The first statue carved by a native American Indian in the Statuary Hall.

This church was built into the side of the hill and just east of Flagstaff on Hwy 40.

My first teepee of the trip. There are two here at the Flagstaff KOA that you and rent out and live in. I'd do it for 1 night and then it would be back into the motorhome. I like my bathroom and kitchen. Small is rough enough for me. Without would be ......well, lets not go there. Just know that I don't do camping in tents and on the ground. I don't mind the bugs and snakes....it's the dirt and crummy hair I can't handle. Well, we'll be off again tomorrow and headed to Las Vegas I think. We may shoot for beyond that but only the driver knows for sure. Until tomorrow.....................PS: sorry for phuzzy photos....going 70 MPH and phog (fog) doesnt make it easy even if I was good at it, which I know I'm not.
