Monday March 11th
I was up and showered in time for breakfast with Wehrli's and a fine breakfast it was too; eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, OJ, and coffee. Visited for awhile and then went out to get the trailer ready for the road. We had some old carrots in the fridge in the trailer that we tried to feed to the horses and Henry but only one of the horses was interested; Henry was being shy of us strangers and wouldn't even come over to see us.
We got on the road about noon and then stopped in Wilcox for lunch and gasoline. Then onto New Mexico. Because of the daylight saving time change over the weekend we lost an hour when we crossed the state line. Arizona keeps Mountain Standard Time all year, which means they are the same as California in the summer and the same as New Mexico in the winter. There is not much between the Arizona state line and Las Cruces; Lordsburg is pretty small and Deming is a flat uninviting place, which despite its flatness seems to be growing.
Got to Las Cruces shortly before 6pm and got setup before dark. The temps were in the low 70's and it was very pleasant outdoors.
