Go West Ol' Man Day 9, August 13

 it's off to Philmont  this morning to visit HoME.  Visited the new scouting museum and impressed what they had done there.  Felt good to be back but very quiet - all the crews are back and now it's a scattering of full time staffers and some seasonals.

After that, we picked up Gus and headed to Taos. Weather was great for a day of just walking around the old town.   Had lunch on the patio of a local restaurant and Gus got all the attention. 

The drive over and back was very nice - two lane all the way and really nice to views of the hills and mountains. I don't think I would be pulling the camper along that hiway anytime soon, but we saw several that were.  

Tomorrow we head to Grants NM.  Staying at the Junkyard on 66 Brewery.  I liked the sound of the place was the reason.  Have had great stays at the Harvest Hosts.  Here are some pictures from today. 

Nap time!
