Up to Date




























Haven't put anything on here for a while and we are in a park that has wireless internet so and going to try to put on a bunch of pictures. The first Dolores insists that I put on of me dealing cards for a sequence game we were playing with Short and Sharon in Mesa. We played a lot of sequence and euchre while there. The pictures may not be in the order they are supposed to be so hopefully you can figure them out.







The next ones we took on a trip we took one day to Sedona, which is up by Flagstaff. The first is one at Montezumas Castle which in the 1300 or 1400 AD's cliff dwellers lived in the caves at the top.







The next 4 are actually in Sedona, the first just a scenery shot, the second a Catholic church up on the hill, the third is a picture of a house taken from the area where the church is, and the fourth is one of Short and I from the front of the church just looking out over the area.







The last is what happened to us on our second day on the way home. We were just east of Albuquerque and heading for Santa Rosa, New Mexico when the traffic stopped about 5 pm. It was snowing and there had been a whiteout ahead of us with a major pile-up. We were told there had been 6 semi's and 4 or 5 cars involved. The interstate was completely full, both lanes, almost immediately. We sat there until almost 1 am before we were able to move and then we crept along about 3 miles to a crossover where they sent us back about 20 miles to Moriarty as the road was closed on east. We got back there about 3 am, pulled into an Alco store and slept for about 4 hours. The road was opened mid-morning yesterday so we started out again. We had had a reservation for that night here at this park but since we couldn't get here, we called them and asked if we could use it for last night instead, and they said we could. We came here yesterday and stayed last night, then decided to stay another night, so we are going to leave early in the morning. The weather should be better for us thru Texas, Oklahoma, and Missouri by waiting this extra day. Hopefully I will be able to get these pictures on.
