Trip to vegas

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with T.U.P. Realty

 I recently took a trip to Las Vegas to a Cartus relocation group workshop and we went exploring the day before. I ran across this sign in the Arizona Desert. God bless you Angie how in the world do you sell real estate out here. This was a good 10 miles from the closest home and about 3 mile from the closest paved road.
The great story behind us find this sign will have you rolling. We rented a car in Las Vegas and decided to go to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon to see the new sky walk. Well we were smart and brought along our TomTom to help with the directions. My co pilot had set the TomTom on shortest route rather than quickest so we get off the paved road and here we go.
Did I mention we were in an Impala.

Any way being from Mississippi I really didn't think much about having to take a dirt road. We knew there were going to be some dirtroads anyway. OH BROtHER was that a mistake. If it were not for growing up driving in dirt we would have still been out there in the desert.

Here is the road we were on at one of the better locations were I could actual slow down.

All the while we were going through here we got slightly off the track the TomTom said to take so the British lady in the TomTom was saying at your first available opportunity turn around.

Needless to say on the way out we did not turn on TomTom or JoeJoe or anything else but went by the good oldfashion map.

All in all it was worth it though. we did get to see this

Thats an eagle flying over the grand canyon.
