PBS has been running a series of movies on the National Parks. It sure has been great to see when they started and all the folks that did so much for this country.

Last night in Clayton NM. Rain Fog and wind all day.

Now in Taos at Taos Valley RV, nice place. Weather cool but clear.

Anyone passing through Cimmaron NM, BEWARE its a speed trap! Just found that out to the tune of $118. Cop had his lights on from the other end of town.

Beware of Highway 87 from Raton to Amarillo also. Dalhart is where I got mine a few years back.. I always make sure I do no more than 5 over.

Spent last three days in Moab. If you are ever in the area you must see both Arches and Canyonlands! Totally different but both awesome.
Leaving for Salt Lake City today.

talala did you get to see Dead Horse park while in Moab? I watch them make a commercial for cigarettes for Europe and that was something to watch all the takes. I took a ride on the Colorado river at night for a light show and bugs lots of people to eat on.

Went to Dead Horse park on way out of Canyonlands. All is spectacular!
Sun we went to see the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, seen the full practice run then the live broadcast. If you are ever in Salt Lake City on Sun, go see them.
Are in Reno now, went to Virginia City yesterday.
Enroute to Modesto this morning.
