A
trip to Moab, from Texas is incomplete without stopping in
Roswell, New Mexico to take in a little bit of the local UFO vibe.
Just
a few miles west of Taos there is a very high bridge over a river.
See the white spot way down there?
The
ride down the mountain from Taos was one breath-taking snowy view
after another. We just don't see this in Texas!
Tim
was driving to Moab, so he decided to go play. The sign, though,
made him think twice about this particular location. Tread
Lightly, Tim! Turn around!
He
didn't get far, though, until he just sat and spun. Once he made
it out, we had a little snowball fight and hit the road again.

After
heading through Santa Fe, New Mexico, we changed drivers. Even
with two GPS units and an atlas, nobody seemed to be paying
attention and we missed our turn (hey, I was sleeping)! We decided
to keep going and ended up in Taos, which is over 11,000 feet.
Here, Lesbo, Rick, and Matius look at the atlas!
Could
this be an omen? Way down there at the bottom, was an old Jeep!
You can almost hear it..."Don't worry, honey. I can make it
up the hill. I have lockers!"
The
Project TJ looks good against the snow! I wanted so badly to go
play, but was too lazy to unload the Jeep.
Tim
decided to just give it a little test-drive in the snow on the
side of the road.
