Leaving Red River today and going to Angle Fire for a few more days before going home.


It was just a short drive to Angel Fire so I just followed in the Jeep. 



Went shopping at the farmers market.



Electricity went out 20 miles all around us so we went to a brewery and talked them in to a few beers. 




                        Back in camp for a great steak dinner.

Time to go home



Stopped at St. James hotel in Cimarron NM for breakfast.







Lost our back window on our way home and don't know what happened.

At this rest stop when you looked one way it was blue sky and the other way cloudy and rainy.


  Long day driving (13 hours); glad to be home.
