In the late spring of 2001, a suggestion was made to go to Williams, Arizona to see Alan and Betty's new restaurant, Miss Kitty's Steak House.  (Alan has been playing there for the past several years and he and Betty took over the steak house full time in March of 2001.)  So Ty and Joe flew out from Cape Cod and Lynn drove over from Los Angeles.  Lynn had set it up so the visit would be a total surprise to Alan and Betty.  These are some of the photos from that visit.

In August of 2003, Lynn decided to take a road trip to visit Alan and Betty.  It was the last chance to see Alan and Betty at Miss Kitty's.  Here are a few of the photos that Lynn took on that trip which included a visit to the Grand Canyon.

If you don't like the weather, wait a few minutes and it will change.  It's times like this when a visit to this natural wonder is so special.
