Williams on Route 66

Another sunny morning, with night time temperatures down to -11°C.

We had a bit of an “issue” overnight with the water. In a nutshell, Lyn woke up around 4AM and heard water dripping. I had turned the water on to a trickle just to keep it moving. Unfortunately the trickle was a little too fast and the holding tank filled up. Luckily Lyn discovered the problem with about an inch of room left in the sink. I think I finally have it sorted for tonight.

It was laundry time this morning, followed by the weekly shopping.

After lunch we headed out for a walk into the town of Williams, which is located on Route 66. On the way we stopped off at the train station to pick up our tickets for tomorrows trip to the Grand Canyon.

Again, more pictures, less writing.

A New Method of Snow Clearing.

Here they clear the snow into the centre of the street, that means no driveways get blocked. The advantage of wide streets.
