Crossing the Rio Grande

Las Cruces to El Paso, Texas

woke up to a really pretty morning. We checked out the Breakfast at the hotel and it was a bust so we loaded up and headed out. Stopped at The SHed but there was a 30 minute wait. It's Saturday! Rode to a McDonalds and it was closed for remodeling but across the street was a convenient store with a grill and they were whipping up some awesome Mexican breakfast. There was one table and we grabbed it. 

With bellys full we headed out. 

What a ride today. We were heading southwest and there was a west wind acting like a sail.

Right now they are raking/blowing all the leaves on the ground up leaving it smooth for falling nuts.
