Mexico Bound

 It's time to head to Mexico!  After a few tough days grieving for our friend Peggy, we finished up the packing, loaded the car with tubs and suitcases, put the kayak on the top and headed out early on a Sunday morning!

Of course we hit snow - it wouldn't be Colorado without running into snow, even though it wasn't in the forecast!  Co. Springs was slick and it only got worse as we headed to Pueblo!  Then we hit the ice - and then we hit ice fog!


Luckily after we ate breakfast in Raton, NM the weather got better!  We had a nice drive into Winslow, AZ - Glenn couldn't wait to get there so he could watch a football game!  So we had a later dinner that night which was fantastic as went to the same place we went last year and split a hamburger and fries - the burger was actually 1/2 pound - there's NO WAY either of us could eat that much meat!  Anyway, super good meal!


Then it was a short walk to take our annual pics at Standin' On The Corner (in Winslow, AZ)


It was chilly!

A great nights' sleep and we enjoyed their breakfast!  And the journey continues....

What a lousy way to start the trip but you are heading to warmth!

YUCK on the snow but glad it didn't last the whole time! Now I am singing the song...

Those roads looked terrible! Glad you made it and just like Jessi I'm singing the song now!
