I stayed in Silver City, New Mexico to break up the drive to Albquerque.....couldn't face an EIGHT HOUR drive.........so stayed here to check it out. Visited with Blythe, whom I haven't seen since 1969. I stayed in a small hotel called Gila House, took a short walk around the town. Had coffee in the morning at JAVALINA, a take on the wild animal of the same name. Met the owner, Polly, whose sister has lived in Eugene for 40 years and although I don't recognize her name, sure I might know her face.
Silver City, according to Polly is a third world country, but artsy with retired hippies.
Monday morning I think I was the ONLY person driving up the mountains and through the GILA NATIONAL FOREST. It had been 31 degrees when I got up in Silver City.....this was definitely the scenic route.
On the other side of the mountain, the first sign of life--------------CLOSED.
Going north on Highway 25, headed to Albuquerque. Cool and sunny day.
