Sunday, On The Road Again

It's me again, been a while, huh.    I'll be back to blogging daily, hopefully.  Won't have as much to keep me busy.  We  are truckin' down 1-25  about an hour from the Colorado/New Mexico border.  Staying there, Raton Pass, New Mexico.  I hope to post this before arriving, then will post pics of campground.  Only there for one night.  Then heading toward Albuquerque.  Will be pulling into the balloon fiesta park on Wednesday afternoon.  Sure can't wait.  The balloon we will be working with is FLYING PURPLE  PEOPLE EATER.  Sorry if I already told you this, if not, how exciting is that.  It is soooooo funny.  If you are wondering what she might look like, and cannot wait til I post a pic, you can google FPPE hot air balloon and get a sneak peek.  I didn't mean just to use letters, you will need to spell out the entire name.

For the past two months, we have been where, what I can only imagine was a sneak preview of what Heaven  will be  like.  My stay with Tina has had all the love and magic one could dream of.  Yes, I am sad that it has ended, but so very thankful, not only to Tina and Mike, but to the Best husband on earth.  Our two week stay stretched to over two months was allowed to happened because of Tim's desire to make me happy.  And that he did.  I love you, my big boy.

We are driving between what I think are the Spanish Peaks, still in Colorado.  They are so awesome.  I popped a couple pics, so we will see how they turn out.  This is a beautiful drive.  Not a lot of color, but lots of unusual natural beauty.  Great smooth road, I-25.

That's it for now, and if you are reading this and there are no pics, please return later to view them.
Please enjoy, as much as I enjoy sharing this marvelous experience with you.

Feels good being back in touch with y'all.  Hope you enjoyed our ride to Raton Pass.  Have photos from my last two days with Tina I want to share.  Will work on that for tomorrow.  Have a wonderful evening!

Life is good
