Everyone be good for Michelle....
I'll be traveling in Northern Arizona for a few days and internet access will be spotty...at best. I do plan to check out Meteor Crater (so E.P. will be happy) among other things.


Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

Re: Everyone be good for Michelle....
I went to Meteor Crater last summer. Big hole in the ground. : )
Actually, it's very interesting. The landscape around there is bizarre looking to my eye and then there's this massive crater. We went in the height of summer, so, HOT. When you leave the highway and take the road south to the crater there's a tower off in the landscape to the left. It took a bit of google research but I found out it was built by ... oh gosh, now I don't remember, nor how long ago. Surely not Barringer himself? Anyway, it was meant to be a tourist spot - close enough to the highway that people would stop and climb the tower and from there view the crater. I find it very strange because it's a ways from the crater and seems impractical. You'll see when you drive by it. Proximity to the highway just doesn't seem like a good enough reason to build it there. Anyway, you can't go near it. It's just a tower in the landscape.
Meteor Crater itself is very impressive and has a pretty nice exhibit center. Air conditioned. : ) Take pictures!

Hmm...someone has an unsecured router within range. Slow as shit but better than nothing I guess.
Not worried about the heat, J. Temps are in the 60's.
