Man, this road reminds me of the devil's hi-way in Arizona.
Route 666, now known as U.S. 191, has been named by the Federal Highway Administration as the curviest road in the country. There are 460 twisting turns within 120 miles through the stunning White Mountains of Arizona.

From the Town Of Douglas in the south, 191 climbs from the desert floor past the world’s largest open-pit copper mine and up through the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest to more than 9,300 feet in elevation in the White Mountains, crosses the Alpine-like Hannagan Meadow, and then descends through a community called Alpine and on to Eagar and Springerville, where Billy the Kid once punched
cows instead of lawmen.

A wild road full of switchbacks and believe me, no fun with a 38 foot rv pulling a 24 foot enclosed trailer. Oh yeah, did I mention there are no guardrails.

An Airbus 380 is on its way across the Atlantic. It flies consistently at 800 km/h at 30,000 feet, when suddenly a Eurofighter with a Tempo Mach 2 appears.
The pilot of the fighter jet slows down, flies alongside the Airbus and greets the pilot of the passenger plane by radio: "Airbus, boring flight isn’t it? Now have a look here!"
He rolls his jet on its back, accelerates, breaks through the sound barrier, rises rapidly to a dizzying height, and then swoops down almost to sea level in a breathtaking dive. He loops back next to the Airbus and asks: "Well, how was that?"
The Airbus pilot answers: "Very impressive, but watch this!"
The jet pilot watches the Airbus, but nothing happens. It continues to fly straight, at the same speed. After 15 minutes, the Airbus pilot radios, "Well, how was that?
Confused, the jet pilot asks, "What did you do?"
The AirBus pilot laughs and says: "I got up, stretched my legs, walked to the back of the aircraft to use the washroom, then got a cup of coffee and a chocolate fudge pastry."
The moral of the story is: When you’re young, speed and adrenaline seems to be great. But as you get older and wiser, you learn that comfort and peace are more important.
This is called S.O.S.: Slower, Older and Smarter.
Dedicated to all my senior friends ~ it’s time to slow down and enjoy the rest of the trip.

You're brave! 😲
 

Three men died on Christmas Eve and were met by Saint Peter at the pearly gates.​

'In honor of this holy season' Saint Peter said, 'You must each possess something that symbolizes Christmas to get into heaven.'
The Englishman fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a lighter. He flicked it on. 'It's a candle', he said.
'You may pass through the pearly gates' Saint Peter said.
The Scotsman reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of keys. He shook them and said, 'They're bells.'
Saint Peter said 'You may pass through the pearly gates'.
The Irishman started searching desperately through his pockets and finally pulled out a pair of women's panties.
St. Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and asked, 'And just what do those symbolize?'
The paddy replied, 'These are Carols.'

Not really, just stupid. I should have been concerned when I started out past the copper mine and had to drive through this tunnel. Had to pull the rv to the center to clear all the roof stuff. Once through, you were committed as there was no place to turn around and get out of there. From that moment on, it was white knuckle time... all the while listening to the wife bark at my wonderful decision to take a short cut to I-40.
