Weather was terrible this morning -- raining and warnings of hail and severe thunderstorms. At breakfast, we ran into three French men from Paris who are motorcyclng old route 66 from Springfied, Missouri to Los Angeles. We managed to communicate a bit, though their English was no better than our French. To start the day, we got new tires for the RAV4; the other were down to the warning strips. An hour on the road near the Texas border, the weather began clearing. West of Amarillo, we saw a huge windmill farm in the distance that went on for about six miles. Quite impressive. The rest of the day it was sunny. Upon entering New Mexico, it got windy, blowing us around quite a bit. We decided to continue on to Santa Fe, and arrived at our campsite one day early. Fortunately, the site we were to occupy was empty.
