We got up early, left a cold Santa Fe, and headed down the road to Albuquerque. Marianne wanted to take the southern route, through Hatch, but Richard wanted to take the shorter route, through Flagstaff. Richard was driving, so we turned on I40 to Flagstaff. The traffic was not bad, and the driving was easy, thanks to relatively little wind, most of the day. We had lunch in Winslow at a family Mexican restaurant; we were panhandled there by Indians. The reservation looked mostly sad.
Flagstaff had lots of snow on the side of the road, glad that we were not there the day before.
On our way down from Flagstaff to to Phoenix, Liz called. Eileen was in the hospital. Marianne was pretty upset. We headed for Eileen's house, and parked the camper in her driveway. We then headed to hospital, and visited with Eileen a bit. A damper on our plans to have fun in Arizona, but we will try to do some fun things while we are here.
