Arizona the Beautiful

Our stay in Arizona was quite enjoyable. The scenery and climate were constantly changing. We went from the low desert to the high desert, into the mountains, to the Grand Canyon, then by snow capped Mount Humphrey. After a day off in Flagstaff, we stayed up around 7,000 feet before descending from the Mongollan Rim back into the desert. We have now climbed over the mountains and into New Mexico, crossing the Continental Divide for the 7th and final time.
Along the way the met many fascinating and generous folks. From Jim and Val Perry in Prescott to Gabe and Casey our hosts in Flagstaff. Kathy Collins, our Reach Out and Read Contact in Flagstaff was extremely helpful. She chauffered us around town and made an excellent dinner. Absolute Bikes in Flagstaff also hooked us up with a generous discount as we needed some new bike supplies. And, of course, we are still dining on wonderful Annie's Mac 'n Cheese courtesy of our sponsor Annie's Homegrown.
