Cali deserts and northern Arizona

Hi everyone!

We are in Williams, Arizona right now. It is snowing here! We weren't expecting it, but we drove right into a winter wonderland from the Arizona desert. It was a climate change more abrupt than any we'd ever seen.

We came here from Red Rock Canyon State Park in the Mohave desert in California. We saw one of the most incredible sunsets we've ever seen on the way there, and the stars that night were also an incredible sight. It was a very windy night, however, and we awoke covered in dust and sand. We also happened to be right next to a cub scout retreat, and the kids woke us up pretty early playing games and such. It was a very beautiful area though, and in the morning we were able to climb the rock formations in the park and we even found a small cave-like area in one.

Due to the snow forecast, we are saving the Grand Canyon trip for Tuesday, and going to Sedona tomorrow. We hope the weather doesn't hold us up too much. We will definitely be home for Thanksgiving.

I am putting more pictures up soon.
