Wednesday, June 18, 2008 We got up this morning and went for a run around the NAU campus then headed over to the Campus Coffee Bean for breakfast where Anne says she had the best pancakes that she has ever had in her life.
Our first stop for the day was to see the Meteor Crater about 40 miles east of Flagstaff. It is the location of a meteor impact that occurred 50,000 years ago forming the crater that is 570 feet deep and 4,000 feet wide. There is a really nice visitors center designed by the architect Philip Johnson. Anyone in the Flagstaff area visiting the Grand Canyon should definately make an attempt to visit the crater. I find it more impressive than the GC.
We headed west passing back through Flagstaff and down through Sedona, around Phoenix and back on I-10 to Riverside. We finally made it home - 6,100 miles, 15 days, and only 1 speeding ticket!
