Rv's started leaving on Monday, April 20th and the Rally wasn't officially over until Tuesday, April 21st. On Tuesday morning we heard RV's starting to leave as early as 4:30 AM and it was a steady mass exodus from then on. We pulled out about 9:30 headed to Amarillo.Saying goodbye to Albuquerque, it would be fun to come back for the big Balloon Festival.From a small gathering of 13 balloons in 1972, the Kodak Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta has grown to become hands-down the largest balloon event in the world. Held each year during the first week in October, the Balloon Fiesta has hundreds of balloons and over 1,000 pilots.After having the motorhome for 6 1/2 years we are finally going to get to Texas, if only the panhandle part.

May 3, 2011 finds us back on the road for six months, headed for the Northeast and the Canadian Maritimes. As of September 2008 we now are full timers in our motorhome. We plan to see as much of the North American continent as we can.
When we are not traveling in the summer, we will make our home in Star Valley, WY where we have an RV lot.
Here we are able to play golf, fly model airplanes, quilting, line dancing, dance parties, play cards, swim and four wheel in the mountains. Star Valley is located just 50 miles south of Jackson Hole, WY and we are surrounded by mountains. The temperatures here are very comfortable for the summer. Winter is a different story and that is why we won't be there. Way to cold for us although Barb does like the winter snow so we will probably find some now and then.
