Day off. Wrapping up the Ashbaker clan's grand tour of the Southwest. Next stop on the way home is Monument Valley and Gump hill.  Maybe we'll get to see the burros (correction, donkeys.) crossing towards the San Juan river again like they did yesterday evening. That was definitely something you don't see everyday..  

AM2-Ran the loop road in Monument Valley and dog eared back and forth while the family stopped and took photos.  The weather was just perfect with low clouds and a cool breeze. Breathtaking and cathartic to say the least.  12 miles total.

Stopped at the Burger King in Kayenta and viewed the exhibit honoring the Navajo Code Talkers.  One of the most interesting stories was that of the woman who received captured Japanese battle flags and after laundering them was reported by her neighbors as being a spy.

AM-6 miles on 7th/Quarry bend/13th.  Ran into the wind on the way out and also on the way back. No worries. Legs felt good today after warming up for a few miles this morning, just a little stiff from the drive home.

PM-Updating my the blog this afternoon. My wife took some cool photos of our vacation.  I'll see if I can get some posted here later on.  Still updating my blog... Hopefully I can get some pics soon.  My wife has the phone which we took the photos on:)

AM-No run. I seemed to have caught some sort of nasty bug. Mild fever and just overall feeling drained today.. 

On a more positive note we adopted a Russian Blue cat from the shelter yesterday which we are still not quite unanimous on a name for him.  He has quite the vocal and strong personality which is more like a dog than a cat.  Quite a character..

AM-Easy 6 miles. Pressing forward. Read the poem "Invictus". Kind of a dramatic poem but a good read nonetheless.
