Back in the saddle again

Well I'm writing this from the parking lot of the Silver Saddle Motel. It's a cheap place to stay in Santa Fe. We've stayed here before. It's not too bad, beats camping. And the folks that run it all real nice. This photo is of me outside as I type this edition:
How's that for real time!
We overslept this morning (ABQ) and missed the free breakfast. Well most of it. Normally they have eggs, sausage, yougert, bagels, muffins, etc. Today when we arrived at the breakfast nook, they had two doughnuts left!We grabbed those and the last of the coffee and headed to the Petroglyph National Monument.

It's quite a climb!

Now they tell me!


After climbing all over the mountain, we worked up an appetite. We decided to go back to the Frontier again. If you pine away for Holiday House Hamburgers, the Frontier has an exact duplicate, including the Onion Rings. Made me think I was in Austin almost.
After losing a shootout with the Duke, Dave has to buy lunch at the Frontier.
Dave's char-broiled hickory burger. yum!
After lunch we headed over to the Route 66 malt shop on old Route 66 for a refreshing old time Phosphate and a home made rootbeer.
