Day 113 Lees Ferry, AZ-Prescott, AZ
11.21.16
Rainy and windy day so sight seeing was a challenge but we managed.  Left our campsite next to the Colorado River which was flowing at 6200 cfs. Seems low.  Drove upstream to check out Lees Ferry put in for the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. No boaters putting in today. Next stop was Sunset Crater National Monument. Cool lava flow beds and cinder cones. Still blustery and raining so we continued on our way. Stopped in Flagstaff to try out Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers. It's a fast food joint but some people had recommended it so we thought we try it since we don't have them back home. Our evaluation is that it's better than most fast food joints and the custard is tasty. Steep descent on I17 out of Flagstaff towards Prescott with occasional view through the clouds. The landscape near Prescott is similar to Southern California. As we were driving through town we noticed many RV resorts so it must be a good place for snowbirds. Finally arrived at our friends Phil and Lynn's. They took us to downtown Prescott. We walked around the square with the old courthouse and historic buildings surrounding us. Ate dinner at Gurly Street Grill.  Fun time catching up with old friends.
