signs and fun things from a road trip to the Little Red Riding Hood Ride in Utah

Funny one I saw outside a gas station on the way back from a hike last weekend: "Fire danger extremely high--don't even fart in the woods!" I think we're OK as far as moisture now...we just had way too many days in a row of rain!!

Made it safely to ABQ and am happily digesting a couple of green chile enchiladas and a local microbrew beer. The highlight of driving the the flat flat emptiness that is west Texas from Lubbock to the NM state line was the town of Bovina, three grain elevators , a dozen houses, a gas sttion/quick mart/local post office/garage/farm equipment repair etc and about a jillion feed lots. Approriately named.

WASP museum. Shoulda stopped, you could've taken in the big homecoming. Still might be worth a stop on the way back - either as a bit of women's history or as a belated Memorial Day tribute, or both! Sad that that acronym is being forgotten so quickly. I had to google it myself, and I *knew* about the WASPs, WAVEs and WACs.
