Albuquerque, NM

We’ve had a nice stay at Enchanted Trails, an RV campground with everything except a dog park.

It was reasonably priced ($43/night) and had decent laundry facilities with very cute decorations.

There is a display of antique cars and antique campers.

One day we went into Sante Fe, shopped and had lunch at Thunderbird Bar and Grill, second floor overlooking the Plaza. I had a burger that was to die for.

We found a very nice park – playground area, skate board area, pickleball courts and a large grassy area where you could throw a ball. We went there several times for Zoe, she loved the grass.

The reason we stopped here for 5 days was to get the battery situation fixed. That turned out to be fantastic. There was definitely a problem with the batteries – they were supposed to be wired together in a certain sequence but they were not. Also the wire used was not the appropriate size. How it worked as well as it did is a mystery. A day and a half later and $2800 lighter we are all set and ready to go.

Tomorrow we will go to the Petrified Forest State Park for a couple of days, then on to Flagstaff and a day trip to the Grand Canyon.
