TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, New Mexico

The 21/2 hour drive up to TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES was hot and dusty, bringing back the sense of my theme Wrath of the Grapes. Urgency happens when you can barely stand in the wind and you are being exfoliated by blowing sand. I was reminded of the many years in sub zero weather in Alaska, where relaxation does not happen outside, you just get-er-done as quick as you can. So much for our relaxed meandering.......

We hooked up at the beautiful Elephant Butte Lake, and were sheltered somewhat, until later in the night when the winds picked up again, giving us a rocking all night long.

My niece’s husband, Bruce, hosted us for our brief respite, before taking off early the next morning, hoping to get ahead of the wind.  I am starting to feel whipped............
