Continuing the trip home

After visiting with our dear friends the Borgerson's in Oklahoma City, we continued on towards Santa Clara. The trip we mostly uneventful, except for the little bit of excitement we had when the grill that we were transporting in the small trailer behind the Highlander had taken so much vibration on the New Mexico pot hole highway that all of the bolts had come loose and the top of the grill was about to come off, which would have come flying towards me as I was following close behind. So we came to a complete stop on the side of the New Mexico pot hole highway before coming to an exit.

So, as the busy traffic SPED by us, we finished taking the top half of the grill off (there was only a small screw holding it on!) and placing it in the back of the truck. Had I not been so lazy in the first place and put it in the back of the truck before loading the 5th wheel, I think this would not have happened. There was just WAY too much vibration in the back in that little trailer.

That night we stayed in Santa Rosa, New Mexico.

Continuing on, we spent the next night in Flagstaff at the Little America. We ate dinner at "Black Barts". This was recommended by friends. It was a pretty good restaurant with complete with live music performed by the waiters and waitresses. It was OK?, but was just a little to loud to carry on a conversation with friends.

The next day the only event was the HUGH traffic jamb out side of Flagstaff due to an accident. Had we gone the other way and gone through "Radiator springs" the inspiration of the "CARS" movie, we would have avoided the accident and got home an hour our two earlier.
