Colorado Bound

On Saturday we finally left Show Low to head for Colorado. The first night was spent in Albuquerque. On Sunday on the way to Raton, NM we went by this familar site. In case you don't recognize it, it is the auditorium at Glorieta.







In the evening while in Raton we took a short drive and encountered some of these creatures. Our wildlife count certainly increased! Although we saw a few antelope around Raton, we saw numerous ones on the drive to Monument and the Ponderosa Retreat and Conference Center, our home for the summer.

When we arrived in Monument the temperature was in the low 70s. Late yesterday evening we experienced about 3 inches of hail. It has been raining most of the day and have had a high of 46. Just a little too cold for us but it sure beats the 100s in Phoenix.
