7/11- 7/12

sorry i haven't posted much the last few days. we've climbed 15,000 ft and i've been too exhausted to post at the end of the day. not only have we had an unbelievable amount of climbing, but we've also hit some strong winds on the plains of arizona and new mexico. luckily, i've taken some great pictures and i'll post those right after this. pretty cool that we're in our 3rd state. getting to alburqurque tomorrow. in the last few days, i've climbed a canyon, ridden next to a group of galloping horses, saw 2 elk, a whole bunch of cowboys herding cattle and beautiful scenery everywhere. we're staying in a motel 6 on historic route 66, tonight. talk to y'all later!
