Today, Tuesday, June 8th, we drive from Gallup, NM, to the Grand Canyon, where the forecast looks favorable for camping (provided we can find a camp site).

Update: Since our last post on June 6th, we toured Carlsbad Caverns, in Carlsbad, NM. Quite impressive. Spent 4 hours there. Then we drove about 160 miles to Lone Tree Bible Ranch, where Ray’s neice, Heather and husband Ken, roled out the red carpet, serving us a tastey chicken BBQ, and providing us with a Guest Cabin. We had fun with their young children, Joah and Leah Ruth, and witnessed a spectacular night sky with a fully charged electrical storm. We could hear thunder in the distance. A light rain fell that night. Due to their 6,800 ft elevation, it was very comfortable in the 70′s and 80′s!

Monday morning, June 7th, we drove the 90 miles to Santa Fe, had a great lunch on the Plaza, took a quick self-guided tour, and then drove west to Gallup, racking up 390 miles for the day!
