Welcome to the hotel sorta near California

As promised, i present to you, 5 days worth of posts in one...

Out in a west Texas town of El Paso...
{day #7}

Today was a, more drive, less fun, sorta day. As usual we got up at our own leisure, and had a great {free} continental breakfast. Earlier pops had taken a run up this ridiculously steep hill, so before we headed out we checked the mileage of his route. From there began the great expanse of nothingness. Truly there where places where all you could see was dirt and shrubs {it was so cool!}. We saw a few wind farms which was different. And I saw my first coyote {it was road kill, but still a coyote}. We had decided earlier to go ahead past El Paso, so we are staying in Las Cruces, NM.

The Rexes = Awesome!

{Day #8}

So for the first time on this trip we did not stay at the Hotel for breakfast. Instead we went to Denny's {3 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage, and 4 pieces of bread}. We drove past a little hole in the wall town called Bisbee, and when i say hole in the wall i mean it. the town was built on the sides of a group of hills, and talk about some winding roads, holy crap! the next stop was Tombstone. I had gone there a last time i was in Arizona, but i really didn't remember it. Tombstone is one of thous places where people still dress up like cowboys and walk around taking pic's with tourists. from there we went to Jo and Jims house, which is right on the edge of Saguaro National Park, which means that i got some awesome pics to put up when i can. we hade a great dinner with them and grandma Frew, Riley my cousin is staying with them right now so he ate with us too.

Why does Ga. not have an Eegies?

{Day #9}

Today is Grandma and Pop's 38th wedding anniversary, so they went and had lunch at El Molinita's Mexican Restaurant while Me and the rest off the gang went to Eegies {its a sub place but they are really well known for there slushy, called Eegies}. For dinner Uncle Jim grilled chicken, and it was soooooooooo good!

{Day #10}

Mexico, The great wall of America, and realy cheap stuff, where all key points on todays agenda. We drove to Nogales, USA, then crossed over {with out having to so much as pull out our driving licenses} in to Nogales, Mexico. And it surprised me how similar the two border towns where, the only diferance was the amount of beggars. we only walked a few blocks, because A: Mexico is dirty, and B: we where on a mission. I was looking for a very specific sort of sweat shirt, and i found it! it was fun talking the guy down from his original price. i also bought a Mexican wedding shirt .

Next was the Titan II Missile Museum, which was "very interesting" as grandma put it. and that night Butch & Sue Maxam, friends of grandma and pops, came by and visited. Butch helped to clarify a story that pops had told before.
