Elkan's two?
Damn.
I'm from Roswell, just south of Albuquerque. I miss that dry heat. Maybe, if you're lucky, you'll get to see some of the hot air balloons rising off the baked earth.
Virgil Earp?!
Why not compare him to Wyatt.
I thought Wyatt was the man.
To bad you can't make a side trip from Winslow AZ. Just below the St.Johns-Springerville area is the White Mtns.. Some of the most beautiful forests in the west. Some of the largest elk too. If the wolves haven't ate them all. One look though, you'll know what Cochise was fighting for.

Watch Tombstone.
Virgil had the big-ass mustache.
You wanna know what that hot, dry, blasting wind is good for?
Stunt kites.
The only redeeming quality about living in Oklahoma.
Unusually, ubiquitous - 3 U's. No doubt there's the name of some crustacean that has four U's. Tumultuous has four U's, which I realized when I spell checked it.
Oh yeah. IMHO, the best things to do around there are;
Ride the ski lift in Red River (it's open all year round).
Check out the Indian market around the court square in Santa Fe.
Visit the Pueblo village in Taos.
Puye cliff dwellings.
And there's a few dozen places I like to hike around the enchanted circle area; Angle Fire, Red River, Rainbow Lake, Wheeler Peak, Baldy.
Chimayo is kinda cool, for an hour at least.
This dude was to grey to be Wyatt.
I hate to argue about stuff nobody cares about, but what the heck. The rough road is probably rough not because it is concrete, but because of the poor soil underneath it. We have some concrete interstates here. They hold up pretty good on the east side of the state, but on the west side, where the soil is bad, they get real rough. And the asphalt roads aren't any better.
Lol... love the description of the fellow with the 1911 you camped next to. Priceless!
Canada has that crappy healthcare system thanks to Keifer Sutherland's maternal grandpappy.
You truly haven't seen the word storm defined until you see one in the midwest or where Nate is. Truly awe inspiring.

To protect against skimming and eavesdropping attacks, federal and state officials recommend that Americans keep their e-passports tightly shut and store their RFID-tagged passport cards and enhanced driver's licenses in "radio-opaque" sleeves.
That's because experiments have shown that the e-passport begins transmitting some data when opened even a half inch, and chipped passport cards and EDLs can be read from varying distances depending on reader techonology.
Virgil lookalike= awesome!
I cannot believe Elkan's two. My how time flies.
And for the moms in the crowd, how do you keep the boys occupied for so long? Are you stopping and just not taking pics or are they occupied with DVDs and video games? I mean, they gotta get out and run around, right? My kids do and they're girls. They like to sit quietly. Just not for 4 hours straight.
Maybe I've underestimated the size of Nate's RV.

It's definitely big enough for the boys to run around in it.
"at least its not hot. It only got up to 102 today"
That's *not* hot? huh - I heard the dry heat isn't that bad. Maybe that's what you're referring to.
hahaha..Virgil Earp..just from your description, I love that guy!
Holli, Spirographs, etch-a-sketches, books and Ipods or some kind of way for them to listen to audiobooks or music through earbuds is how my hubby and I got through car trips with kids. You still have to stop once in a while though if you don't have the RV like Nate does for them to run off a little steam.
Thanks Susan. I was really thinking how Nate didn't have any pics yet and thinking that's a really long time for those boys to be cooped up in a vehicle. Anyway, Josh assures me that the RV is big enough to play football and race monster trucks in, so apparently there's nothing to worry about! LOL
We've been able to time it so that we start a DVD when we back out of the driveway and by the time it's over we're at the first rest stop. Everyone gets out to stretch legs and use the facilities and then it's time for movie #2. When that's over, we're at my parents house in San Antonio.
My kids are pretty good travelers all things considered. 2 are pre-readers and the third gets carsick if she stares at a book. Bummer, cause I wouldn't be able to travel if I couldn't have my books or sewing or something!
