An actual conversation:

Jen: Moose crossing next 10 miles (noting the yellow road sign with a picture of moose on it)
Jim: Is that a moose or an elk?
Jim & Jen: DEER! (bolting from under the sign right in front of us)

In this part of Arizona they have elk on the interstate

The Grand Canyon is impressive, we didn't spend alot of time there and the overcast skies made our pre-dawn trip less worthwhile as sunrise was basically behind a big sheet. I would definitely come back and go down into the canyon.

Interstate speed limit in Arizona is 75 MPH. Backroads state highways (like US51/12&18 are 65)

It's surprisingly cold here and still rainy. The high temp has been 75-ish. It was a bad idea to only pack sandals.
