Ready to roll again. Got on the road around 9:30.
Just past Las Cruces, we crossed the Rio Grande River! I almost missed it!
There is just not much to see all across New Mexico I-10 except trains and we saw a train about every twenty miles.
Suddenly, we were in the mountains again and the area where the rocks are balanced on top of each other in the weirdest formations.
We stopped on the north side of Tucson at Wendy's to stretch our legs and enjoy a Frosty. Got this picture there. These are so pretty and they are everywhere here. It's like a tree/bush.
This picture doesn't look like much, but a few of you will recognize the peak way in the distance. This is our first view of Picacho Peak, an easily recognized landmark near our destination.
Gee whiz, there sure were a lot of "dust devil" twisters. See the dust?
We are arrive early enough this year to see the cotton in the fields, ready for harvesting. And there is a lot of it!
Also, much hay. This is one of two sheds side by side, full of hay. This is about two miles from our destination.
Not a very exciting day for pictures, but an exciting day, as we are looking forward to being at our "assignment" for the Fall and Winter. Excited to see old friends and meet new friends. Excited to see how God will use us this season.
Well, we got parked, but it wasn't easy. Then the jacks wouldn't come down, then there were problems with the water hook up, then there was a hole in the sewer line... all in 104 degrees. Before Don got done, I was following him around with an umbrella to get the burning sun off of him. We were both drenched with sweat. Lovely thought, huh? This is an exciting indication that Satan doesn't want us to be here and we are in for a great season of service to the folks here.
We are so blessed.
