Our precursor to the big Grand Canyon day, was to see the Grand Canyon, IMAX movie. On the screen it was pretty incredible, can't imagine what tomorrow will bring!

April 20th~~~24th, Williams, AZ
Our stay this time was at Canyon Gateway RV Park, our "home" sat on top of a beautiful mountain and overlooked the small town of Williams, AZ. It is right off of I-40 and the famous Route 66. It was a very neat little town that was the model for the movie, "Cars". As we strolled down the streets we were reminded of the different scenes in the movie, so neat! The entire area was surrounded by train tracks and we heard the sounds of the rumbling trains daily. Got kinda' use to hearing them as they hauled their cargo from town to town.
SEDONA...Breath-taking!
Definitely the most incredible sights we have seen, so far! The pictures will not do justice to the beauty of this town...only the God-given camera of our eyes could really capture the magnificent hues in the rocks that compose SEDONA!
April 14th~~~20th, Page Springs, AZ
Not so good news for us, our AT&T coverage all last week and now here too is non-existent. Plus, no internet service, even with our mobile MiFi. :-( Amazing how cut off from everyone we feel. We certainly have grown dependent upon these wonderful modern technological devices!! Have had to drive into town everyday to check our mail or make calls. Bummer!
Sunrise RV Park, provided us a babbling brook, right outside our coach.
Attended two little churches, one in Cornville and one in Cottonville. Enjoyed fellowship with them during their Wed night meal and also prayed along side of them for the needs of their congregations. Good to feel a part of so many brothers & sisters in our Christ!
Right around the corner from us was a Fish Hatchery, we did the self-guided tour, pretty neat!
On to JEROME, AZ, an old mining town, which claims to be a Ghost Town. Never saw any ghost, but the quaintness was worth the trip! There was an old crusty miner still hanging around, who owns a 1942 Harley, and it still runs! He cranked it up and gave us a demonstration. :-)
April 7th~~~~14th, Camp Verde, AZ
Arrived at Camp Verde, on Saturday, and after setting up, sought out a church to worship with on Easter Sunday. It is our commitment to never travel on a Sunday, but to be in a camp, fully set-up by Saturday so we will always honor our King by being with HIS people...wherever we happen to be! Our worship on Resurrection Sunday was great and we returned that evening for their PM Bible study. Thankful for the sacrifice Jesus made for us!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLEN!!
We visited several local attractions while we were here. Just a few blocks away from our campground was a historic military fort, Fort Verde. Enjoyed going back in time to get a glimpse of how life on a military fort would have been.
The next day we visited Montezuma's Castle, an Indian dwelling, built in a mountainside. An amazing house, to be sure!! From there we ventured to Montezuma's Well, which is a natural artesian well, very picturesque.
