Sums up the day

Today was going well until I started to paint my room, then things went a bit haywire.....

This is part of the original Rt 66 west of Flagstaff. I explored a bit yesterday.
Nice 'from the hip' shot

@blueberry1222 I was climbing back up to the road, trying to get a from the pavement shot- oops.

Nice representation of your day. I see there’s still snow on the peaks.

@redy4et Lots too and more to come. The day was complicated by a shut down computer which I had hoped to restart later but ran out of paint :-(

I love seeing places I've never been to.

@overalvandaan Thank you so kindly, very much appreciate the fav. Route 66 had its heyday more than 50+ years ago but still draws a great many fans today. The remaining route is in sections so to drive it requires some freeway driving at times 🚗

I thought that maybe after the Cars movies came out there would be a resurgence in route 66 interest but as you said in your previous post, besides the parts that just don't exist anymore there are parts that are just too isolated...
Reminds me of that statistic about how the majority of people only get a few minutes from their car when they stop at national parks... Most people want Disney Land on a plate, not effort.

@dustyloup We so often love our parks to death. Living near the Grand Canyon has given me real insight to a true and inner beauty that it possesses. I have learned of places to see it where few others go. Let the masses go to instagram spots and I can go the opposite direction.

@joysabin have you seen the posters by subparparks? She takes one star yelp reviews of national parks and turns them into modern WPA era like posters
