A Day Spent in Ghost Towns

A Day Spent in Ghost Towns

 Saturday, April 12, 2014 Today we visited several ghost towns – completely different meanings of the phrase “ghost town”, but all somehow earning that title.

Our Great Southwest Adventure: Day 6

Day 6: March 21, 2014 Farmington, NM to Payson, AZ For most of our trip, we had carefully spaced out all the places we were visiting and made sure we were only driving 3-5 hours. But today, we couldn’t avoid a longer (7 hour) drive. We ended up adding on more to our time by going back to 4 corners…. Read More
