Oma's Trip ~ 03/04/03 Dateline: Sierra Vista, AZ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Good day today. Up early (for me) and out of Las Cruces, NM at 8am. Kinda pretty drive today... Soonie Subaru was behaving well and I even got to ignore ALL the signs that said: POSSIBLE DUST STORMS next 10 miles (or 15 miles... or 25 miles... or 30 miles). These were some SERIOUS signs... they definitely wanted everyone to know what to do in case a dust storm came up... ZERO VISIBILITY IS POSSIBLE and NO STOPPING IN TRAVEL LANES There was no dust storm today, though... lots of sunshine... Crossed the continental divide a little after nine and Filled up in San Simon, AZ a little after 10. Checked into motel6 as a little after noon, got settled in and headed for Wal*Mart -- hadda get some PINK baby yarn to make a blanket for my new great niece, Hannah. Got online and have been answering email... hadda put more pictures up on ForeverAbby.com and then get this ready to post... in between talking on the cell phone. SLIGHT change of itinerary: Tomorrow (3/4/03): Sierra Vista, AZ to historical Bisbee, AZ to check that out... and then on to Tucson to spend the night. Then the NEXT night in Phoenix. THEN I really get brave and will tackle L.A. -- WHEW! Stay tuned....
