The Long Trek, Day Two

Tonight we have made it to Albuquerque, which very well may be the hardest city to spell. Our trip from Oklahoma City to Albuquerque was very adventuresome. First, we encountered the largest cross in the western hemisphere. Chauncey felt the power of Christ from a distance.


We made it to the Big Texan Restaurant for lunch. We enjoyed a half order of mountain oysters (google if you don't know) as an appetizer, Abby had a Brisket sandwich, I had a country fried steak sandwich. All of the food was good. There were also games a plenty. Chauncey enjoyed many games, even a bit of gambling. Of course he is always open for a photo op.








Next, just a few miles out of town, we encoutered the Cadillac Farm on the side of I-40. We found some paint and painted our names on one of the cars.




All in all, we had a full day. Flagstaff, AZ is next on the list.

Oh how we love Chauncey. He really has gotten around these days. He is quite the traveler. Oh that made our night thank you so much for that lovely family slide show!!!

Nice work on the pics. The cross picture reminds me of the enormous cross Kelly and I see from I-57 in southern Illinois. THAT might be the biggest cross around.

Aside from that one, my favorite Chauncy pic is the one where he's sticking his head through the cowboy cutout. Hilarious.

Where are y'all staying until you find an apartment?
