Albuquerque to Provo Day 3
New Mexico has the most beautiful landscapes with flat table topped mesa and unusual rock structures in the middle of nowhere. Crossing the border into Colorado the landscape changed almost immediately and we were suddenly in agriculture country with bean fields and irrigation canals visible from the highway. We saw lots of road kill: racoon, squirrels and even a dead cow that had rigeur mortis - it looked more like a huge balloon than a cow. Continuing north to Utah we drove passed Moab and determined it was the most beautiful view we have seen so far. I definitely want to go back there to cycle and poke around more. We arrived in Provo exhausted and hungry and needing some room to spread our legs. This has been a wonderful experience for me to have R all to myself for these two days - sharing our stories, singing her songs, dreaming our dreams. She is a wonderful companion and I hope this will be the first of many road trips with her.

YOU ARE HERE? WHEN CAN I SEE YOU!!!
Sounds like a good trip - by the way, who is Rax? How many children do you have? Where does everyone live? Them, you ...
Hi, I've been meaning to comment on the past few posts - but I've always been on my one computer that for some reason doesn't let me comment. Weird.
Anyway - first that HEB grocery store - I know them well. Did you know that they are named after their founder - Harry E. Butts?
Also when we first moved, we drove to Houston through Denver, New Mexico, Albuquerque etc. But we had NO air conditioning in our car - and it was July. Not so fun.
