Well, I thought I was done traveling when I sold my Roadtrek. I just bought a 26' travel trailer and my daughter Melissa and I are taking a trip to New Mexico in October. We're pulling the trailer with her truck and staying at Red Rock Park in Gallup, NM from Oct 7th thru the 13th. I LOVE New Mexico and so does she. We're planning on going to Hubbell Trading Post, taking a jeep tour through Canyon de Chelly, seeing the Ah-Shi-Sle=Pah Wilderness Study area, the Painted Desert and El Morro. We'll be pooped when we're done but happy campers. Once an RVer, I guess always an RVer.

Glad to hear you will be back on the road again soon! You might run into Beth out there too. I think she may be heading back that way after Keystone around that time.

Who's gonna take care of all your pups? Or will you take the whole pack with you? :shock:

Don't forget to keep us updated on your adventure. Sounds like a very busy but fun trip!

Wow! You are doing it up big this time!

One of my favorite COE campgrounds, by the way, is at Cochiti Lake, about 25 miles SW of Santa Fe. Gorgeous views and way out in the middle of nowhere. I rode my bike around downtown Santa Fe last time I was there but very scary with all the traffic, so I won't do that again.

Barb - Can't travel with seven pups. I have a wonderful lady who stays at my house and takes care of my crew. She doesn't have a car so I also leave her my car and she can run around as much as she wants while I'm gone. Couldn't do it without her.

Can someone PM me how to post pictures. Its been so long and it was so difficult that I completely gave up. Is there a way to post from my phone instead of a camera? Does anyone use a camera anymore?

If you go to this link... http://photoposting.is-great.net/ you can copy and paste your photos on here from there. Much easier than photobucket.

I don't know about posting from your phone, I use my camera and hook it up to my laptop.

Glad you have a reliable person to look after your dogs while you are gone.
