day 4
































































This morning we left Andrew's and Sam's place and we had an amazing time with them last night. (Yes Liz you are right...he's a bit lame but we gave him a pass bc his wife is so sweet and the dogs were so much fun) It was a nice break from driving. I fell in love with one of their foster dogs...which I might come back for. :) I think I still might have to convince Ian we absolutely need a second dog...

The drive today was beautiful. We finished up our drive in OK and through Texas. The pictures we posted are of a storm we drove through. We do not get storms like that in VA. The lightning was amazing. I wish we were fast enough to catch a picture of the lightning.

We're camping out now in Albuquerque (yes the campground does have WiFi...) and I'm in heaven without all the humidity. We'll finally be in AZ tomorrow afternoon. I cannot wait to see all my family :) I miss them!

The last picture you see is our nephew, Gustavo. He is the cutest baby ever. Gustavo and my sister in law, Meghan, are staying at our house while we are away. From the looks of it, him and his ducks having a great time in our bathtub. I just stuck that in there bc that picture made my day :) (Just kidding Andrew, we had a great time with you too).

P.S. Ian almost made me become a vegetarian today. We passed a truckload of cows and I said "Oh look at all the cows, so cute," to which he responded, "Yea, they're on their way to the slaughter house." And then they lingered with us for several miles as the truck moved before us, beside us, behind us, and then back beside us again.

  1. - Glad you got to see some real storms! A few nights ago the sky was yellow because of all the lighting.
    - Love the third pic - the windmill is perfect.
    - Baby Gustavo is adorable
    - Just saw this writing contest for people "on the road" http://www.gadling.com/2010/07/15/win-big-with-trazzlers-travel-writing-contest/ and because of your last post on Pricher, I thought it especially applied. (And it's short, only 65-120 word submission)
