The "kids" have made great time and are spending the day in the mountains of CO.  We will meet tomorrow at the ABQ airport!  I am really excited now because there will be a Solstice program at the canyon. Just confirmed to day!



And so they continue making their way across Kansas. It takes quite a while. I meanwhile am washing dishes. ugh! and covering up the gray hair so I will be photo ready tomorrow!!

On the Chaco Trail

Soon I will be realizing a 20 year old dream of going to the Chaco Canyon in the desert of New Mexico. There is finally a paved road and restrooms. 2 of my only requirements for trips. Thankfully since our animal farm has grown we will have a very capable house sitter. So forget it robbers, you will be crushed.
I have my bag packed and will be meeting my daughter and her friend in Albuquerque. I am flying, they are driving. Age does have it's privileges.
We will be there during the summer solstice which should have some amazing markings on the ruins. The people great knowledge of astronomy and it shows in the placement of certain makers that still remain.
Plus we will get to eat at some great New Mexican restaurants. Yum Yum!
Hopefully, I will be able to post some pictures if I get some technical support. Ha!
