Every corner brings new things.

Leaving Texas, we started making our way to Albuquerque, New Mexico. The scenery went from vast farm fields, to desert canyons by merely driving over a hill. Sometimes it would go back to farm fields, then another corner and its giant mesas.

We made a stop for lunch in Albuquerque at the last route 66 diner around. I give it a 6/10 for the food and an 8/10 for keeping it old school in looks. But the city seems to be placed in the middle over nowhere because about 15 miles out of the city there is just nothing. The landscape was breathe taking at times, such giant cliff faces and deep valleys. The only way i could explain it is by giving an example in World of Warcraft lol, it looked just like the Barrens haha, with a little Mulgore as well.

We set up camp a couple miles into Colorado in a town called Durango. The town wasn't to big but lacked a lot of things nearly every western mass town has, a church, a mcdonalds, cvs... We set up camp in much cooler weather then what we had in New Mexico, but we didn't expect how cold it would get. After finally getting in our tent around 10pm, the temperature dropped a lot. It must have been around 30 degrees that night, something we didn't really pack for.
