New Mexico is lovely

Definitely into New Mexico in fact have passed Alburque.



He was out walking having eaten at Burger King, said if they passed that way again would definitely eat a salad at the salad bar at the restraunt instead. He loves driving through New Mexico all of the red rock bluffs, says he has seen quite a bit of snow and it is really much like Central Oregon. I am going to figure a way to get pictures of at least the states to go with these so we can just glance and see where he is. He is still sounding so positive, except for 1 little thing. He says he can really discuss leg cramps with me now. Told him probably driving and walking and spending 18/7 in boots ( I assume he takes them off to sleep). So first purchase will be tennis shoes I'll bet so he can walk in them at stops.



We are discussing him getting a camera, digital to send pictures but will have to teach him how to download at computer centers, I assume truck stops have them. I guess he can always pull into WalMarts and send them that way by uploading to their site and then people can get prints if they want, etc. Maybe next month.



Marcel is not telling him when they need to get off the freeways early enough and has almost gotten them off route a couple of times plus the time in North California when he missed the place to leave the chains. Scott wonders if he is drving too fast so that Marcel can not tell where they are. Anyway on with the story, then Marcel gets excited, talks loudly and with an even thicker accent and Scott really can not tell what he is trying to say. But figures they will get it worked out. He is really enjoying this whole thing, hope it lasts.

As for me, I actually pretty much moped around New Years Eve and New Years Day and then came to the realization that I did not need his permission to arrange the house any way I wanted to. We have always gone round and round about scatter rugs and I realized I could have as many as I wanted and he would not kick them out of his way. So now I am back to cheerful me. I have been knitting my second slipper. Went and played games with Becky, Mary and Charlene early New Years Eve and making stationary in Incredimail. Well need to get back to work, which by the way I am also doing and reading a very good book. Life is good.
