Welcome to New Mexico - state no.4

Gallup, United States

Crossing the border - only 21 states to go.

Despair and Dust

Gallup, United States

Jamie Jensen was right when he noted "the obvious poverty and other signs of genuine despair".
We've learned our lesson from Holbrook and are not stopping (other than to take this photo).

Turning left at Albuquerque...

Albuquerque, United States

Bugs Bunny was right!
We did turn left...off Interstate 40 onto Interstate 25, heading for Santa Fe.
If we hadn't, we would have ended up at the South Pole.

Adobe Everywhere

Santa Fe, United States

The highest state capital in the States.
Internet issues - most likely due to our proximity to Roswell. Need to get Fox Mulder onto it.
Got asked for my ID @ Catamount Bar & Grille (I'm 46 with grey whiskers - I guess I should be flattered).

"Quit your bitchin' dude!"

Santa Fe, United States

Rockin' out to KZRR 94 ROCK coming out of Albuquerque. I've never heard so many "dudes" since "Dude, Where's My Car?" (or "Dude Looks Like A Lady").

Welcome to Texas - our 5th state

Tucumcari, United States

First it was snow, now torrential rain!
Can't even see the sign at the border.

Is This The Way To...

Amarillo, United States

I will NOT be hugging my pillow in this town!
This is where we say goodbye to Route 66, as we head south to Lubbock (home of Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Waylon Jennings and Tanya Tucker).

Due to my inability to upload any further photos to this blog, I have started a new one whose URL is : http://www.blogabond.com/TripView.aspx?TripID=2507
