Thursday, March 22, 2012 -- We left Arizona this morning. Arrived at Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Yup that is the town name.

Bob's cousin, Chris Delf Stout called today letting us know that her husband, Bill had passed away. They are more than cousins, they are very good friends. We will miss Bill very much. He fought Colan Cancer for over 1-1/2 years. Our thoughts and prayers are with Chris.

I will have pictures of todays trip. Just too tired tonight to post them now.

Sunday, March 18, 2012 -- We had a very windy day yesterday. Temperatures were 80 or so. But that was blowing in the cold front. We had rain and very windy during the night. Today at 10:00 a.m. it was 48 degrees. Now at 12:45 p.m. we are having rain and hail. That is what the next two pictures are; hail on the back bummer of the truck. We are suppose to get to 58 today, we won't unless the sun comes out.

We will be cool until Wednesday, I see they've change to high on Wednesday to 73 degrees, then Thursday it is suppose to be 82. Wednesday should be a nice day. We leave here on Thursday morning.

Wednesday, March 14, 2012 - (Posted 3/15/2012) Barbara Jean's 15th birthday is today. Happy Birthday Barbara. Yesterday she found out she made it on the Lincoln High School JV Soccer Team. Very proud of her. Jessica is have try-outs for Lincoln High School Softball Team. Will not know until Friday or Monday what team she will be on.

Yesterday we (I) had a great time. I love to go to the zoo. This isn't one of Bob's favorite things to do, but he did fine. He actually told me when we got home that this is probably his last zoo. He says one giraffe whether it is at Toledo, San Diego, or Phoenix they all look alike. We did San Diego last year. That's fine, I appreciated him going to the zoo yesterday. It is a lot of walking and when it's hot it can be a long day.

It was a nice zoo. Because it was 80+ degrees there was a few animals that opted for shade and laying down. We were surprised some of those that were walking around. We were normally able to see the animals, even though they were laying down. Some zoos they can hide away and you can't even see the animals.

Very nice zoo.

These turtle are enjoying the hot sun. I wonder when they climb up on the piece of wood if the others think they will fall in the water. Now that would be neat to watch them climb up there.
