I drove past this sign every day for almost 2 1/2 years. I'm sure it is/was a Forest Service sign- but it is a style that is no longer in use and no one on the district knows what it was for. But I always liked it. I passed it as I turned onto I-17 north and it pointed me home.

We have been wanting to ride the Grand Canyon Loop for a couple of years now- the three day Memorial Day Weekend and the need to try out a new cat sitter provided the perfect opportunity!

In 2001 we hatched a plan to visit South America, poring over guidebooks in our tent during our nights in Virginia and North Carolina. Almost six years later, we finally got around to it, and spent two weeks in Peru and Bolivia, traveling from the sacred valley, across the altiplano to Bolivia, and finally, north along the coast toward northern Peru.
