Part II Day 4

 Another Low key day. We meet down in the lobby at 11:30 to head out to eat. All the vans stop at where there are a bunch of restaurants. We head over to the tortilla factory and have a great lunch.  Texas sidewalk 


Then we head over to Palo Duro Canyon State Park. We stop at a few look overs, then head to a cool place to hike where there was a waterfall. We can hike right up to the hole and go to the top to over look the canyon.



After that the rest of the people head to dinner. Our group decides to go to a steak house. It was so good.  While there we all Google where to get cool pictures of sunsets in Amarillo. We head to a place that has a old windmill and a abandoned house. When we found it the house was gone, but the Windmill was still there. It was on a abandoned road too, so that was pretty neat.  


A young man was driving down the road and saw the amazing sunset with the windmill and head up by us too.  We had nice conversations with him while we were all taking photos.


We head back to the hotel then go to the conference room and check over maps and charts for tomorrows storms.  Tomorrow may be the day!!!! We don't know. It is in G-d's hands.  Just would like to see some cool cloud structures.... some lightning.... some cool weather stuff to get photos of.   



So Here is too tomorrow...... May the Force Be With Us!!!!!

    So glad you are keeping a journal and sharing your adventures with us. Praying for a good "weather op day" for tomorrow. Even if no tornado, at least "storms in the distance" interesting clouds, or such. God be with each of you and may he keep you safe.

Day 2

 Day 2 We head out really early in the AM. Went to Safe Way, got cheap cooler, Ice and some items for a picnic lunch.  It is chilly out, we have our jackets on. Then we head to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. I've been there a couple of times before. Really needed to share it with the kids.  It never fails, they scare the crap out of me... We walk a ways on the trail, we meet a bunch of really nice people along the way. The Canyon is just beautiful, sun shining it's pretty spectacular  we work up an appetite  It ended up being another long day. Spent about 7 hours in the Canyon, then drove to Page. The Scenery on the Way to Page was incredible too.  Adam said.... "When you think it can't get any better it does" The weather has been great. Oh, we did notice that we all were a little winded ... the altitude was getting to us a bit.  We are all pretty exhausted . I believe we are going to stay an extra day/ night in Monument Valley. We shall see. ...

Part II Day 7 & 8

 We take a slow ride from Abilene to Amarillo Texas. I call it abandoned house searching.  ww did make a stop at CapRock Canyon too.  How beautiful it is here.   As we are exiting the park we get to see some Buffalo!   The cactus are in bloom too! It takes us quite while to go from Abilene to Amarillo.  But, that is ok, we have a lot of fun taking photos.   The next day we go from Amarillo to Denver. We drive straight though with one very cool stop at It looks like the Badlands  It is pretty warm out, we all enjoy the formations and walking around here.  Next stop Denver... we're going to the same hotel we started in. They have a salt water pool.  We can't wait!   We have dinner first...  so excited about the pool.  We get back and change.  I get this from Dan....  ...

Slept in till 8 AM. Had breakfast,  then started getting the car ready to return .  Put all our luggage on a cart and took it to the hotel next door. Everything worked out smoothly.  The shuttles etc.  Back at the hotel we get our rooms, then I enjoy the salt water pool. Our informational meeting is at 6pm.  We have it meet all the other people on the tour.  Our driver actually knows the people who owned the camp grounds when the kids were little.  Small world.   Good night. Long day ahead of us
