Ken got around 6 am. He started getting things put away outside. I got up, he made coffee; Larry and Henna joined us. We enjoyed our morning together and then began getting ready to leave. We stopped to dump, hugged Larry and Henna, said goodbye. 😞

We are heading east towards Albuquerque, on our way to Atlanta! We're thinking if we get to Atlanta soon enough, maybe we can see the girls next weekend. We called Bella; spoke to her and Lola. We will call April later to discuss this. Lola was all excited. The first thing she said was, "Where are you?" Ken called Uncle to see how everything was. He is fine.

Toby Keith "Beer for My Horses", stopped for lunch in Gallup, New Mexico at Wendy's. We always have to find a place big enough for the RV and truck. We couldn't find anything near Wendy's so Ken parked in a Truck parts store and I walked over to Wendy's. I had to walk through a ditch and on the way back I stepped in a bunch of mud! Ken just simply opened up the compartment on the side of the RV that has an outdoor spicket and cleaned it off. Back on the road....an the playlist continues....
