How long have we been gone???
This is all very strange - according to Mr. GPS we are in New Mexico....you remember that place - the one where we had to stop every hour or so for water so we wouldn't dry up and become buzzard food - well this morning it was 48 deg. with 35mph crosswinds (a beam reach is only beneficial when you are sailing!!) and some pretty black nasty looking clouds just behind our tailpipes...I say crank those babies up and lets get going QUICK!!!! It is amazing how much spunk little Nellie has when she's running from storms haha!! We had all sorts of great plans for our journey back East but we are now thinking that maybe that will be another time another blog!!! Right now with snow predicted for the higher elevations - I'm not sure how HIGH I am but I don't want to be THAT HIGH!!! - we figure the quickest and easiest way would be to retrace our tracks. SOOOO now we are in Tucumcari NM again. Advantages of going to the same place.... you know where you are staying.....you know where the ONLY restaurant in the town is.....you know how to spell it on your blog!!!! So right now it is blowing like crazy here and thunderstorms are predicted for this evening - ahhh life on the road!!! Any port in a storm Flame and Bring it on Big Dog

We got home last night and are already missing you guys. The riding was breathtaking and the company was the BEST!!! The ride through the Rock-Slide-Scary-Tight-Switchback mountain roads with you guys, was an experience I'll never forget. Especially the view from the 8,000 foot overlook...it's hard to ride with your eyes closed! I'm getting set to test out my cornering skills on the flat and straights of NJ, as soon as I can find a curve, that is. Have a safe trip home and thanks for sharing your time and love with us.
