Well it's a long way to Mexico from Boise. Four days of 10 hours each. My Dad came along for company. Which was nice. The road is great. Traffic not bad. Night one: Boise to Tremonton Ut. cold and snow flurries.


Day two: Up in the moring through SLC and on to the uranium boom-town of Moab Ut. Now all plastic and shinny. Oh but still a superfund site. Why is there no sign on this giant pile of uranium tailings?




Still cool here. Good driving through Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. The farms in Colorado are neat and tidy. A drive through the Navajo Nation. now the Gambling Nation. Once we hit new Mexico it is warm, but not hot. Grant's NM. I feel at home here. Well not completly it is a dying roadside attraction. It does have a new walmart and a variety of now empty small businesses.
















The Nissan 87 with junk aboard.






Miles and Miles of Texas. good Roads. we cut south towards big bend National Park and Marathon

A slow start and across texas, there is a lot of texas, to McAllen Tx. a few roadblocks checking for illegals. Mostly open road and no traffic. We stopped in for a visit at langtry texas. Law west of the pecos.

Visit Dan McGrew in McAllen and then up and across the Pharr Bridge into Reynosa, Mexico. Doesn't seem as dangerous as the Headlines. Off to the brecha and back to the proper highway. 7 pm. into valles for some tacos al farron con Alvaro. And we are here!
