We took highway 163 south right into Arizona! It didn't take us five minutes to cross the border! It was a scenic highway with lots to look at and to look out for. This is open range country and horses and cows and sheep are out in the roads eating the grass on the side of the road! The term grass is greener on the other side is proved true by these animals!
We continued down highway 56 and then onto highway 191 where we went into Canyon de Chelly National Monument! Wow, beautiful and it is free to get in! Nice view points with paved walkways to the walled view point. Very nice! Then we stopped off a Hubbell's Trading Post in ganado, Arizona before crossing into New Mexico and hopping on Interstate 40 to head east to Sky City Casino!
Bud was pretty tired when we arrived at the Sky City Hotel/Casino. We tried to chech in but had to wait till 4pm, just an hour. We signed up for players cards and that gave us $5.00 free playing money and $2.00 off each of our buffet dinners! The room was very nice and after dinner Bud went to sleep and I decided I would play Bingo in the Casino. Didn't win anything but I sat with three nice ladies! Then Bud came down to the casino and after losing our $5.00 we went to bed! We missed the last tour at the Acona Pueblo this afternoon, so tomorrow morning we are going to catch the 8:30am tour!!
