This is the route for the day. Vernon, TX to Trinidad, Colorado.


This is a rest stop just south of Hedley. They're pretty serious about rattlesnake warnings here.


There's not a lot to look at in this part of Texas.


This is Jamie at the above rest stop.


This is a very nice rest stop. Actually Mark and I stopped at this same one on our trip last year.


Nancy and Richard at the Hedley rest stop.


Now Jamie and I at the rest stop.


Another one of those rattlesnake warnings.


Well we made it to New Mexico.


Another lone rider stop right behind us and was kind enough to take this picture for us.


Jamie getting ready to go again.


Both of us at the border.


Capulin mountain in the distance. We're finally beginning to see some better scenery.


A zoomed in look at Capulin.


Jamie with Capulin in the background.


Stopped for a break in Raton. We're getting close, Trinidad is only another 20 miles or so.


Jamie doing another clothes change plan.


This gas station is at the corner of Hwy. 87 and Interstate 25 in Raton.


The Colorado border. It's been a long ride and we're ready to get to Trinidad. It's only about another 7-8 miles.
