Deming to Albuquerque

Yesterday we drove up to Albuquerque. About 230 miles, well actually about 15 miles north of Albuquerque where we are spending two nights at a casino campground.

Are you surprised?? har har

It was a pretty boring trip scenery wise.

Deming to Albuquerque 002 Deming to Albuquerque 005 Deming to Albuquerque 006 

We stopped in Truth or Consequences NM for fuel and lunch and a guy at the gas station told me that in the entire county there are less than 10,000 people…holy cow!

The only good thing was the tail wind, for once.

I went into the casino to pay and check out the games and they have .25 roulette, $2 minimum bet…my kind of game. I went back later and played and lost $20. Went back after supper and won my $20 back, plus $60 at a .25 slot. Your favorite Leroy, triple cherries.

 

Today we will drive into Santa Fe. We have heard lots of good things about Santa Fe and will do some exploring. I was surfing this morning for scenic drives near Santa Fe and found several that we could do. Wednesday we will move to a Corp of Engineers park, about 30 miles from here and stay there about a week and do the drives.

Have a wonderful day.

love to all of ya
