We're in Santa Rosa, New Mexico


On the 24th of May we left home around 10 a.m.; spent the night in Vicksburg, Mississippi; but we almost turned around and went back home because our AC was not cooling--just blowing warm air and you know it would be 95+--we were miserable. Wayne figured out to turn off the heater ??? valve and immediately we started getting cool air. We went on our way to Vicksburg, MS.,as planned. The next day we drove to Wichata Falls, Texas. So today, 26 May we wanted to eat lunch in Amarillo, Texas, at the Stockyard Cafe (we saw it on a show on Food Network). We arrived around 1 o'clock and, thanks to Mr. GPS, we drove right to it. I figured it would be kind of like the 'Cheese factory' Frances and Linda went to on their vacation (a whole other story--you'll have to ask Frances or Linda about that!!!!!). But, all and all it was a good meal. I had the Chicken Fried Steak (like the guy on Food Channel) and Wayne had the Hamburger Steak. Huge portions--we could have shared one meal and still had some food left--next time!! I've documented our historic visit with these pictures. I've even included pictures of inside the Stockyard Cafe so everyone can see and 'feel' the ambiance. Tomorrow, we're on to Albuquerque, New Mexico for some sightseeing (only about 100 miles from Santa Rosa) and to spend the night. More, to come as we get WiFi access. Please keep us in your prayers for a safe, happy trip. Love to all until next time-----
