8/26/13 - Albuquerque, NM

Pat and Bob left going west on the rest of their trip on Route 66.  They are stopping at Winslow Arizona today and Petrified Forest National Monument.

We left at 10 am and drove to Albuquerque.  We got a site at Enchanted Trails RV Park.  We always stay here.  Right next door is a Camping World.  Jim stopped there first and bought a new length of sewer hose and a soft side propane tank cover.  Enchanted Trails is on Route 66 and was originally a trading post built in the 40’s. They have seven old trailers here.  It has been used as a backdrop in films and the trailers have been featured in a Route 66 video.  The vintage trailers can be rented.  Below is a link to the types of trailers they have. We are camped next to Josephine and the other 5 are directly across from us.  You can go to this site and see each trailer.  Click on the picture and see the inside of them.   http://www.enchantedtrails.com/trailer_rentals.html

We drove into town and visited La Cumbre Brewing, Il Vicino Brewing and Chama Brewing.  We saw a big rollover wreck on I-40 westbound on the way into town and traffic was still backed up three hours later.  We had to drive on old Route 66 to get back to camp.  We saw on the news tonight that the driver who caused the crash was found to have large amounts of crack cocaine hidden in a "body cavity".
