Jim Harrison, a favorite novelist and travel writer, preaches the virtue of staying off the interstates and wandering backroads, and though the View pulling the tow car does not always like the steep hills and bumpy roads we encounter (Navajo roads often long for a fresh layer of pavement), we try to follow that road philosophy when life and work allow.
After some work we have to make progress north into Colorado, so here's the plan - from Homolovi we'll go down 40 a bit, then up 191 to Chinle in Navajo country, past the Canyon de Chelly National Monument, through the 4 Corners, over to Durango and north to Silverton, where we'll camp somewhere with a cable connnection so I can indulge my wish to watch the Lakers fight with Houston.
