Have had an interesting few days. Went to post last night and the computer crashed. Don't know why, but it did. Jacqueline worked her magic on it and seems to be working now. So, I didn't get to tell about the snow in the mountains,on the way to Albuquerque,New Mexico, from Amarillo Texas. One tractor trailor jack-knifed in the median, but most of the snow had blown off the highway. The long and winding road down into Albuquerque was well sanded so guess they really did have snow stay on the ground. I stayed the night in Los Lunas , New Mexico. Basic hotel. Could hear showers running and doors slamming till midnight. Also after the 80 degrees on Sat. was a real shock to wake up to below freezing weather again.
This morning was cool but not freezing. Hit the road about 830 arrived in Benson at 230. Jacqueline's road hasn't improved any . The grader was working on the first 4 miles of unpaved road. so could get top speed of 30 on it but then hit the part the grader hadn't reached yet. My goodness , top speed there was about 15 .and most of the time was crawling along. Everything shook, Followed a truck and it wasn't going any faster than me. At least it wasn't dusty, as it has rained a little for the last couple of days.
The lane way has been leveled and was a breeze to get up. No donkeys standing in the middle blocking the way. In fact haven't seen the donkeys since I got here. Expect they will make an appearance tomorrow, as they are really very inquisitive animals. The rooster greeted me with some loud crowing.
Am looking forward to a good nights sleep tonight,with my own pillow and blanket. Don't think I will miss the highway noises.
We are watching the hockey game. Canada aginst Sweden. We are searching the crowd for Janice as, she and Carl are in Ottawa watching the game.

Yes people keep telling me they saw mw last night at the game, we were directly behind the sweden bench. Hard to see past the managers but it was a good game.
Suppose to snow and freeze rain tomorrow so hopefully its over before dad flys in.
