From our hotel we walked along the Riverwalk and through the Hyatt property to The Alamo right in the middle of downtown San Antonio. Our initial impression was that it was much more crowded than when we visited in 1974 on our 1st Anniversary trip. We were fascinated...
We left Las Cruces and headed through El Paso across Texas to San Antonio. If you don't already know it, let us tell you that Texas is a long state no matter how you cross it. El Paso to San Antonio is as far as St Petersburg to Atlanta. Saw lots of land,...
Park Video Following our cave tour and after a quick lunch at the top we headed out for our next stop, Las Cruces NM. Our route took us through a part of Guadalupe Mountains National Park in northern Texas. With little time or energy for exploration today, we got just...

Enjoyed the opportunity to join the crowd at Las Chivas, the coffee shop in Eldorado for conversation at the center of the universe. In the afternoon we went in to Santa Fe and had a wonderful meal at Mucho Gusto on Paseo de Peralta, stopped at the yarn shop, browsed...
We had wanted to spend more time in southwestern Colorado in this area with so much Ancestral Puebloan history but the weather forecast was for snow. We decided to head for Santa Fe sooner than planned. We headed south to Shiprock then across northern New Mexico...
See Park Video The real treat of the day was our visit to Mesa Verde National Park, a World Heritage site. We took the Cliff Palace tour and our guide, Ranger Scott really conveyed a sense of what life was like for the Ancestral Pueblo People here more than six...

With lots of rain in the area, possibilities of traffic snarls and the knowledge of road construction near the theater, we left home with plenty of time to spare and arrived at least and hour before showtime. That gave us a chance to wander a bit of downtown...
The reason for our quick trip to Ohio yesterday was to fetch Sc@rlett who, since the end of our 2019 rambles, has been in residence at nüCamp RV in Sugarcreek OH in the care of R&D department for some design research. When we learned this past Tuesday that she was...
