Today is an easy and short day. I’ve met my schedule, which had a tiny bit of slack built in, 
and now with just 250 miles left to Grand Canyon and Diane, I don’t have to be there until tomorrow. So, having passed the planned part of my journey, I take my time this morning and investigate where I might stay tonight, thinking Sedona might be nice. I find a nice Arizona State park in Cottonwood, a little south of there, so after a short 2½ hour drive I arrive at Dead 
Horse Ranch State Park.
I find a nice pull-through site with electric and water up the hillside in the top loop of the campground. It is a beautiful day and I am here early. Having picked my spot, I have to go back to
the front gate to register and pay my fee. So for the first time on the trip, I unstrap my bicycle from the back and ride to the ranger station. After taking care of business, I ride all around the campground area, taking some pictures and a short off road trail ride. I thought it would be a long grind back up to my spot, but it isn’t so bad afterall. Life is good.
