We have put on 2,000 miles on the Clampett mobile and are spending the night in El Paso. We left Scottsdale at 10:00 and pulled into El Paso at 5:00. That was probably the most boring drive. You drive along at 75 to 80 MPH, for mile after mile through mostly flat country of desert and cacti. The nice thing was the sun and the temperature.
We are getting homesick for our our new home and fixing the terraces up with plants and hammock. We read the weather is great. Lots of activities scheduled for the festivities of holy week. Both of us are yearning for the new adventure.
Tomorrow we arrive a day early in Laredo and get ready the crossing and looking forward to seeing our San Miguel friends again.
We had a wonderful time at Sandi and Gerry's house. The backyard is a show stopper. A pool and beautiful desert plants, plenty of seating in the sun and shade, palms, tangello and orange trees, and grapefruit larger than two fists growing on the tree. A treat was a shared meal with Donya Wiland. Gerry and Sandi fixed ribs and while Gerry was disappointed, I thought they were very tasty.
We will be in San Miguel on Sunday the 29th. praying all goes well at the border crossing.
