Billy the Kid [Clovis, NM]
February 7, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 6 °C
Clovis, NM, silos and the wafting scent of beef feed-lots, yuck. Now driving up into the lovely hills of NM toward CO after a night in the plains of Clovis.

Couldn't resist pulling off the road to visit the grave of Billy the Kid. The interesting part was the tortured travels of his actual headstone. Stolen decades ago, it was recovered in the 70s and then stolen again in the 90s. Found in Huntington Beach, Calif it was reinstalled in an iron cage. Kind of fitting that The Kid spends eternity behind bars.Read more

Take a Hiatus [Durango]
February 11, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 1 °C
Last week we arrived in Durango for a stay of several months to check it out as a possible retirement locale. So with this post the mobile adventures will abate and resume sometime in the spring.
John LovaasAbated are we?! So, how will we learn about this alleged Durango? From the photo, it looks a bit swampy? Home to alligators, perhaps? Seriously, is there any wildlife in the area? 4-legged variety?

Canyons of the Ancients [Cortez]
March 3, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Took a break from house hunting in Durango to hike a portion of Canyons of the Ancients outside of Cortez, Colo. Locals know about it but since it is on BLM not NPS land it is actually a hidden gem. It contains hundreds of archaeological sites, most of which you would need a guide to find. We visited an unrestored Pueblo near the trailhead and then hiked several miles into a canyon overlook. Pictures do not do it justice.Read more
Linda Mahan Glad to hear you are taking time for checking out the great trails of the area!
