Out of Texas

We finally fueled up and headed out of Texas. Anthony is the last city, or town, in Texas you pass through before crossing into New Mexico. We did actually cross into NM. Honest, we really did. See the sign?? It says welcome. This is where we actually crossed the Rio Grande, not much of river anymore, as it flows south from the mountains around Albuquerque. If we were to jump on I-25 headed north, we could follow it further. Alas, we parted ways in Las Cruces and continued West. New Mexico roads aren't a whole lot different from Texas, (or any where else actually) and we didn't travel a whole lot through New Mexico. Our ultimate destination was Arizona. The sign entering there also says welcome. (People are so friendly here, but that's another story, another time)!? The sun was setting again, so we decided to make an additional stop for the night in Eloy, AZ. This was outside of Casa Grande. We could have continued on, but didn't feel we had to fight the sun in our eyes and arrive Yuma in the dark and try to get setup. We opted for an early night and joined the party at the RV park in Eloy for cake and ice cream. (Halloween and a birthday to boot). A little walk with the doggies and we were all ready to turn in early. Yuma was looming on the horizon. Not long now!!
