MORE desert scenery. I just look at these trailers and shacks out here in the desert and wonder what kind of lives these people lead. There’s something appealing about it but I just can’t work out what it is.No tourist distractions today, so we simply drive east. Made Gallup, New Mexico by lunchtime and bought another suitcase at Wal-Mart.
Highlight of the day was coming up behind a Ford Explorer with Texas plates and a big Leeds United emblem in the rear window. Charlotte wrote “We love Leeds” on a page in her notebook and we put it up to the window as we drew alongside and honked the horn. Big wave and a thumbs-up from a fellow Leeds fan in the middle of the south-western desert!
Charlotte and I thought it was much more fun than did Laura and Bill. Katy didn’t know what to think.
Spent the night on old Route 66 just outside Albuquerque.Flagstaff to Albuquerque = 330 miles.
