US Road Trip Day 14 - Roswell, New Mexcio, Then a quick dash into Oklahoma via the corner of Texas

No trip to Roswell would be complete without a visit to the UFO Museum. Definitely one of the strangest places on this road trip and where we learned that there's nothing a weather balloon can't be confused for.

US Road Trip Day 8 - Monument Valley and The Four Corners

"We loved the mesas, but bubble in the tire and low suspension means no driving the desert trail. On to Four Corners, where we took turns being in four states at once.  A Navajo Taco and the long road to Los Alamos, with me driving and dogs jumping willy nilly into our path. Finally a gas station, fit to burst, then on to night at a Michael's good friend's family house near the birthplace of the atomic bomb." (MM)
