They crossed the northwest comer of N*w (Mexico where they noted the strange dessert flowers" and' vegetation.

The Hoover dam and Lake Mead were found to be worth driving out of the way to see for the first time. While driving thru the Painted desert in Arizona the only tire trouble of the trip occurred (which in reality was not a flat tire.) As we were driving along, suddenly there was a hiss-like sound as when air leaks out of a tire.
