On to Flagstaff
22 July 2012
Fred/sunny and cooler
Got up early and got a cup of coffee and hooked up and departed Phoenix headed for Flagstaff and Black Bart's saloon, steakhouse and RV park. We went through a new Del Webb development called Anthem which was very well done and it had a Starbucks.
After breakfast we headed North and decided to go to Prescott as we have some friends there, but after calling them we discovered they were in Colorado. Had a nice drive through Prescott and decided to go to Sedona as it was on our way on SR89a. But guess what! The bloody road is closed to Sedona and our GPS lady kept telling us to make a u-turn until I finally cancelled her, obviously my map disc is old. We wondered why we didn't see any directional signs to Cottonwood and Sedona. So we went out of our way to Williams and checked out an RV park next to the train station. We think we will stop there on the way home and take the all day train to the Grand Canyon. Penny has been wanting a train ride so she just may get it. Stay tuned.
We got to Black Bart's and guess what? It is Rustic but at $24.00 per night what did I expect. Hope the steak is good.
Drove to the historic district and walked around. Quite nice and I was able to find a mustache that I need for the Western catered dinner at the rally. Pics later. In fact I am doing this blog on the iPad and have to figure out how to upload pictures.
Time for a nap, shower and 8 pm dinner reservations.
