MEOWT! MEOWT! I really like it outside here. I am happy just sitting in a chair
watching. I don’t think my humans
brought enough chairs though.
After our morning walks, we readied Hannah. From this point on, we are somewhat is a
business mode. We need to get to
Farmington, but first, we have a few visits.
Today, we got on I25 south. To
the east, plains. To the west, plains
with the mountains in the background.
The plains turn green, add some ponderosa pines, add some rolling hills
and some canyon sunflowers. After the
town of Trinidad, we head into the Raton pass.
It crests at around 7900 feet, and is lined with pretty pines and alpine
meadows.
As we cross into New Mexico, we leave the mountains
behind. The plains are green with loads
of canyon sunflowers making it quite a pretty landscape. We see antelope grazing amid the cattle. I am driving, which I think makes Spouse
nervous. OH well.
We headed into Las Vegas, New Mexico at the Elks Club. It is not pretty, but it works. The significance of this location is that it
is somewhat close to where my friend Sandy lives. She is in the boonies so this is a reasonable
drive. We thought of doing other
campgrounds, but with the holiday weekend coming, we didn’t want to drive all
over to find campsites are all reserved.
So, this is easy. We aren’t here
for the camping per se. But they sure do
have a fast internet!
What, no pictures??? not today
