To Phoenix/snow 4/21

Tue & Wed 4/20-21
Went to Phoenix on tuesday afternoon. Wanted to see a film/opera at the Harkins theathre off of I-17 at 7pm. The opera was LL Trovatore. It was filmed at a opera house in Spain. It was great. Filmed on stage and the music was so good. Had to read up on it before going. Neat story. After the performance I stayed at a Motel6. The next day I did some geocaching in the morning . On the way back I stopped at the Cliff casino and picked up $50. Left there about 2pm and as I was traveling north to Flagstaff it started to rain- then snow and more snow. Wow. Got onto I-40 at Flagstaff and continue east without snow. Then about 3 miles to my exit 233 I see all these cars and trucks not moving. Called 511- yes I-40 was closed. Sat there from 3:30 to 6 pm. Hwy was closed do high winds beyond ex 235 to Winslow. This is the 3rd time in 3 weeks. Oh well but my first sitting out there.
