Likewise Gunny, god willing I'll be out your way this summer. My Dad's best friend moved to New Mexico a few years ago and I've not seen him much since my dad's passed so he's been trying to get me out there. I could then do a swing through Texas towards you and then loop up to Portland to see my brother, who ive also not seen since he's moved out there. Then across the top of the country and some of the national parks on the way home, a nice circumnavigation of the entire country! It's exactly what I need after being housebound the last four years.
