RoadTrip 2008 Day 5

Page AR - Vegas Baby!
It’s a pretty short hop from Page to Las Vegas, around 4 1/2 hours, so we had planned a nice sleep in around today. So of course I was wide awake at 6 am, *Sigh*. Page itself is really just a little resort town by a lake, but the surrounding countryside [...]

Good time was made and we managed to make friends with the Oklahoma toll road system. It may not have been a lot of money each time but it all adds up. Made me feel like I [...]
