Well today we took off for Albuquerque New Mexico for the Western Regional soccer tournament. Last fall Richie's soccer team took second place in State and this winter they received an invite to the tournament. Its nice to have Grandma and Grandpa G with us. Besides supporting Richie we hope to visit Old Town and see some interesting sites.
Richie drove all the way to Moab and did very well. It was a little nerve racking just because it is Richie behind the wheel..... not because of the way he drove. I took over in Moab and we drove to Montecello Utah and were going to stay the night but sorry to say, the town did not impress us. So we drove on to Cortez Colorado. Once in Colorado we saw some nice farms and greener surroundings. On the way back we might stop back here and visit Mesa Verde National Park depending on how Richie feels after all the soccer games.
I did bring my insect stuff and will go collecting once we reach the New Mexico desert. Grandpa brought his generator and we have the light trap if we get adventurous. Can you image running a light trap on the Rio Grand. Cool..... a coleopterist's dream come true.
Wish us luck and pray for an injury-free tournament.
Good night all!
