Day 4: Land of Enchantment

We made it to New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment. Today we drove 371 miles and gained another 3000 feet in altitude. At 6500 feet we are definitely in the high desert now with significantly cooler temperatures. It is currently 60 degrees here and we are thankful to get a break from the heat. We also survived our first thunderstorm in the RV and were able to watch beautiful lightning bolts over the high desert landscape. We managed to set up the RV just before the storm hit the campground and escaped getting rained on. After 4 days on the road and setting up and packing up the RV daily, we have become much more efficient with our process. What takes the longest time is Cliff connecting and disconnecting the sewer line, mostly because he is married to an infection preventionist, who yells out detailed step-by-step instructions to prevent any contamination of clean items. I also hand out gloves and disinfectant wipes, too many to count. 
Our campground in Grants, NM, is in the middle of a volcanic field, surrounded by black and twisted lava, deposited here by past volcanic eruptions. That was a nice surprise.
Also of interest: We are on gas tank number eight now.
