Today we left Sedona and then backtracked a few miles east on 66 to visit Meteor Crater where a meteor left a well preserved HUGE HOLE in the desert. We had to pass it by on the way in due to time constraints but it was well worth the time to go back for. Another side trip that we took off Route 66 was the Grand Canyon. I just couldn't be this close and not see it. We took an alternate route and traveled north and then entered the canyon from the eastern side. This part of the country is a very desolate and lonely place and it is awesome. After taking the day exploring the canyon we finally reached our destination for the night well after dark!

"Open -road travelers are made more than born. They are as different from theme-park tourists as anything you can imagine. Tourists rush; travelers mosey. Tourists look for souvenirs; travelers seek out the souvenir makers. Tourists want to see all the right places; travelers simply go into the country. Travelers are openly romantic about the going itself, the adventurous possibility of it all."
