Hi All
Hendrik's wife here again.
Am in the process of finalising our epic journey across America am
booking the last two flights tomorrow being:
Chicago to NYC NYC to Tulsa.
Our proposed driving route is: Tulsa - Oklahoma City - Amarillo - Santa
Fe - Grand Canyon - Las Vegas - San
It's been a long, long time since I visited the Grand Canyon, but
it's a day trip, more or less -- an hour or so from Flagstaff, I
think, there is going to be lots of traffic, quite a bit to see, etc.
You could do it in half a day, I think, if you drove ti with only a
stop or two. If you
That's a lot of driving.
From Flagstaff, it takes about an hour to get to the Grand Canyon. When you
guys come it will be pretty crowded. To see it correctly it will take most
of a day.
Hiking is the best way to see the place. If you guys are hikers, going down
to Bright Angel, eating lunch, then

When you drive west out of Amarillo, you will be on Interstate 40 (I-40).

Grand Canyon is doable in four minutes, but you should take a few
hours to really have a look. Maybe a burro ride to the bottom, or
check out the natives. Have some lunch.
Go for the local cuisine in Amarillo and Santa Fe. Nothing like good
BBQ in TX or southwest mexi food in Santa Fe.
May as well schedule some time to checkout Roswell. May find little
green men.

Change your soap, clean the filter and sanitize. The next time you
load the washer, do not cram it full.
The recent brood of dishwashers is garbage. They have to meet new
energy and enviro rules, which has made them less able to actually
wash a dish. Best DW I have had is a 1976
I don't know too much about them but when I shop for a new one I'm going to

The Bosch gets hot from the water, and you leave the door closed for
some length of time and it dries the dishes. i don't think it has a
separate heat blower to dry them. The instructions say to leave it
closed for some length of time.
