No road trips yesterday. Except for a late trip into town for dinner, we kept busy at the campground, where Grandma & Laila started the day with a walk up the hill on the nature trail. When they returned, we all walked down to the river, and explored that area before returning to the motor home.
We hiked back from the river, in one of the washes that passes through the campground.
Laila's priority for the day, was more time in the swimming pool. Her time in the water the previous day was limited, so we got an earlier start yesterday. It was a little after lunch when we walked over to the pool, where I read, and watched the little fish swim for the next couple of hours. While we were gone, Grandma boiled a dozen eggs in preparation for the coloring session that took place when we returned to the motor home.
While the girls colored eggs, I just about finished a book I was reading before it was time to head into town for dinner. At first, our destination was going to be a Sizzler, but we remembered that there was a Casa Bonita Mexican restaurant in Cottonwood. This family owned restaurant is located in about 5 cities, including Tusayan near the Grand Canyon. That's where we discovered the great food they serve, when we spent last summer at the National Park. We weren't disappointed, as the food & service at this location was as good as it was at the canyon. We made a quick stop at WalMart, then called it a day.
This morning, it's time to pack everything up, and hit the road for home. When we leave (I'm shooting for 9am), it will be about a 4 hour drive back to Tucson. I think Laila has another egg coloring session waiting when we get her home, which should be early to mid afternoon.
