Arizona and New Mexico have some very interesting rock formations as you travel along but also alot of desolate places that I don't bother taking pictures of.  I chose a few of the best to share with you.
     
Erosion leaves behind some interesting formations.  Punkinhead in his normal position while traveling!  He sleeps most of the time unless we slow down where he can look out without getting dizzy!
  
Cloud formations always intrigue me as you have seen by my other blogs.  We stopped for dinner at this Route 66 Casino and walked out the door without pulling a handle, I'm so proud of us!  This Casino is just to the west of Albuquerque New Mexico.  It is a nice one with a really good buffet.  We stayed at High Desert RV Park on the outskirts of Albuquerque.  Nice park and reasonable prices.  They were very nice there too.  We parked for the night and settled up in the morning.  We traveled on across New Mexico and across the Panhandle of Texas on Interstate 40 taking highway 287 just east of Amarillo down to Decatur then west on 380 to our Thousand Trails RV park at Bay Landing near Bridgeport.  Spent 1 night there in a very quiet spot that was where the maintenance workers park in the old section.  Went to the clubhouse for breakfast the next morning for a very reasonably priced breakfast and enjoyed a very nice visit with some other RVers.  After leaving there we went through Dallas Ft Worth area and got on Interstate 20 on across Texas into Louisiana.  We made it to Monroe and found a place called Shiloh RV park that was an RPI park for us. Cost us $9 to stay there is all and again we parked for the night and settled up in the morning.  We didn't want to arrive in Mississippi late as we had tree limbs to trim to get into our place so we spent the night in Monroe.  The next day ,Aug 29, we got to our place at 12:30 in the afternoon and got settled after a lunch (dinner according to Mississippi folks).  We will be here for an undetermined length of time.  Have some work to do on our place and also on Billy's Mother's place, sowe will be here awhile. 

Once we start to travel again I will be back on here to share with you again.  May find some interesting things to share from here as well.  We went and picked Okra last night from someone who didn't need any more from their garden.  Made 5 gallons to put in the freezer.  I didn't take any pictures though.   I will be taking time here to go back and re-enter my deleted pictures from the first half of my blogs so each time I do one and repost it those who have subscribed will be getting a notice of an updated entry.  So you may ignore it if you wish or just re-read them and go back to Alaska with us again.  Until next time.  Happy travels to you.
