We are now in Willcox Az with hopes to hit Van Horn Tx or further depending on when we can get out of here. As predicted Val spent time at the Gem and Art show this morning so our departure time was not until 1110 am. We got a text from Val’s sister that Vegas had a few minutes of snow flurries today and while it is what I am being told “unusually cold down here” I am still glad that Val came up with the idea of taking the southerly route. I know all of my northern family (over 90% of the family) is now going to laugh their butts off, I am no longer at all used to this type of cold cruddy weather. I have made a promise to myself to never travel this time a year again.
Well this take is for day 3 of our trip which was the snowy part of the trip headed to Vegas.
The next several shots are of the hotel we stayed in Gallup NM. It was a very nice hotel and the prices this time of year were just above good but they were reasonable. The hospitality was fair to good. I think this is really a party place in the summer. The food was again what I would call fair and the staff over loaded but they seemed to take it in stride fairly well. Over all I would suggest going there again, but take a room with a bigger bathroom. It was hard getting off the john. The hotel is very rustic so if you are into modern this may not be the place for you, but we over all enjoyed it.
To stay on the first floor we got 2 double beds. A bit small but it worked.
The outside shots are for the value of snow. I know not much for you northerners but for me any is too much.
Now for the cozy in door shots.
They name the rooms and this was ours.
The name of the hotel is next.
You have all seen this picture of the front before.
Some road pictures of Day 3 will be in take 5.
