Traveling to New Mexico
After a brief return to California for visits with family and friends we headed to our next home outside Santa Fe, New Mexico. We traveled along old Route 66 and made a few stops along the way. We especially enjoyed another night’s stay at La Posada, the old restored Harvey House in Winslow, Arizona. Now we’re settled into New Mexico for the winter.

We enjoyed a river view hotel room in Laughlin, Nevada
