Back to Alamosa

We took off from Albuquerque about 9 am and headed north towards Alamosa. But we had to stop at the Chevron station in Espanola to see if they had an extra dozen tamales. They DID!!! They get these tamale from the La Parasol restaurant in town and they are the bomb. They use a thin coating of masa with pork and red chile spices. We bought a dozen for $17 and then bought four singles and ate them in the car.


Well, we made it back "home" to Alamosa, Colorado, today at 1 pm. The sight of Mt. Blanca sure was nice to see. Notice it is covered with snow? Ugh!!!

I immediately went to the nursing home to visit my 93 year old girl friend, Naomi. Although she knew I was going to back in town early April, she didn't know exactly when....we'll neither did we! We had a nice long visit while Jim parked the rig at his brothers "toy box" garage out of town.

We have full hookups here, so we call it Chapman's Campground. While I visited Naomi, Jim washed the rig to get as it was looking pretty rough from the road grime since Boerne, Texas, and all the wind we have had since then on the road.

It's nice to be back "home" and see friends, tour the town and see all the changes and be with family again.

Remember, you are loved.
