The morning started early today. We were up and around at 6:30 a.m. Left the park at 7:40 to head east. It is still a long drive home, but headed in that direction.

We arrived in Holbrook, Arizona at 12:30. That way we could see the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert. It is really something how those trees turned into rock.

We started the day at an elevation of 600. At Flagstaff we reached an elevation of 7335. Told "red" (our truck) he was doing very well. We are at 5085 now.

Tomorrow we will get into New Mexico. While in Arizona we have stayed on Mountain Standard Time (they don't change to daylight time). When we reach New Mexico we will then go on Mountain Daylight Time. So we will change time tomorrow. So we will only be 2 hours different.
