Cottonwood, AZ to Albuquerque,NM

We left Cottonwood on Monday with plans to travel about 160 miles to Holbrook, AZ, close to the Painted Desert. We thought if we arrive early enough we would drive over to the Painted Desert for photo opportunities. We had reservations at a rv park that we thought we had never been to but was only 12 miles from the Desert. Well, you know what poor condition some of the small towns are along the road with old machinery, cars and other trash just sitting around...........that is what this campground looked like. The campsites were on a dirt section on the side of the road with an electric outlet every few feet. Needless to say, we kept on driving.

Another 100 miles and we were in Gallup..........nice campground, fresh air and pleasant people. That means we traveled 240 miles in one day !!!!!

From Gallup we drove to Albuquerque planning to stay one night............but Costco called us and we stayed another day...........had not been to Costco in over two weeks!!!

Tomorrow we are on the road again............we will see what adventures that will bring us.

Hugs to all of you,
Barb and Linda
