Absolutely beautiful drive today (and no interstate). We had lunch in Las Vegas (yea, there's one in New Mexico too, but no gambling). We climbed the Sangre de Cristo mountains and arrived in Taos this afternoon. The highest elevation was around 12,000 feet I think - still lots of snow. The ski slopes close this weekend - Tom & Brenda you guys need to come here. We passed through some very impoverished communities on the way up the mountains. Taos is a artistic, attractive community. Here is Larry showing off his acrobatic skills after sitting all day in the car.
Larry's Comments: Today I saw horses & alpacas. I don't think alpacas are very bright but they do look warm.
Eldon's Comments: I must be getting better at driving, I only got flipped off once today.
Tell Larry alpacas are very protective and spit like crazy when approached. He might want to stear clear. Aren't southerners/Westerners suppossed to be nice, why are they giving the bird to out of towners. I hope you gave the bird back! Actually on second thought just wave so no fights break out! Glad to see all is well! Live it up!
