After saying our goodbyes to Pennie, Dave, and Don, we made our way north (with a short stop off at Camping World and WalMart). This is new territory for us.
The Cochiti Lake Dam:
We are staying at the Cochiti Lake Campground – an ACOE (Army Corp of Engineers) campground – water and electric for $10.00 with the Senior Access Pass. Here is our site:
The view thru our doorway:
The view from my side window:
After setting up, we took a nice long walk to the lake:
We enjoyed cooking outside on the grill but sad to say – no campfires allowed – oh well.
The evening ended with a beautiful full moon:

Friday, October 14th
I spent a good portion of today trying to get caught up with the blog and my emails. Almost there – :-)). If I owe you an email and you have not heard from me, please contact me again.
We did have a nice surprise. Andy took a walk around our loop and met a few of the neighbors. Then we heard a knock on our door and WOW, it was Carroll and Bryan – who we met in Quartzsite in January 09 – we had a nice time chatting and getting caught up…
You know, it truly is a small world and the more I travel the more I realize how small it really is.
Later this afternoon, we went shopping for drinking water (this water is very salty) and then took a ride to the end of the road:
On our way back – we are in the middle:
Right now we love where we are staying so not sure how long we are staying or where we are heading next so…..stay tuned and enjoy today!
