Oct 25th--Cottonwood, AZ

A couple of pics from our trip to the petrified forest. The logs were strewn at random. The dino was outside the petrified wood store...Kinda cute, isn't he?

We left Holbrook this morning about 8:30am (that's a first for us) and drove to Cottonwood, Az and checked into Dead Horse State Park. It is so nice here. We have full hookups with shower and restroom about 100 feet from here. We got here about 12:00pm and boy was the weather a change from what we were used to. 85 degrees and I have to get acclimated all over again.

A pic of our campsite. Nice pull thru and easy to unhook from the truck. The campsites are filling up fast. The volunteer said by this weekend all sites will be full. The next pic is of a fishing pond just down from our campsite. Might have to try it out...

This is just before we headed down the 6% grade out of Flagstaff to Cottonwood. There is a lot of haze in the sky from the Calif. fires. We saw 3 Disaster relief red cross vehicles headed that way today.
