Country roads... Take me home...

Found myself on the wrong side of the road today... Well wrong compared to what I am used to. Luckily I stayed on the right hand side all the way from Phoenix to Window Rock (near the border of Arizona and New Mexico).

Everything started fine, the GPS was a god send t help me get out of Phoenix and used to the new side of the road. However it died an hour out of town and I had to resort to instructions written on the back of an EFTPOS docket from a servo! When this didn't suffice I lashed out for one of those old fashed paper devices called a map - and it got me here!

The changing landscapes were fantastic today, from rocky mountains dotted wih massive cacus plants,to pine forests and snow, to flat desert plains - I feel like I saw it all. The temperature varied significantly too. Started at 83 (30ish) today and ended at 50 (10) here in Window Rock.

Will be back on the road tomorrow afternoon heading west towards Vegas. I'll stop somewhere along the way for the night and be in town by 11am Thursday (5am Friday home time)

On the road again... Just can't wat to get back on the road again...
