The Boondocker

By the end of the weekend my work in southern Illinois (the “s”  is silent by the way) should be wrapped up. So, on Monday I will hitch up and head west. I have to be in Las Vegas, Nevada eight days later. How I get there and what I do along the way is up to me.

I am giving some thought to hitting Lawton, Oklahoma to see some friends and then maybe Palo Duro Canyon in Texas which I keep meaning to visit again, but never seem to. From there I will likely push on to the Jemez Mountains in New Mexico for an overnight and visit to the hot springs.

After Jemez, the question is whether to head north through the four corners region and maybe a visit to Chaco Canyon and some fly fishing on the San Juan river, or to just stay on a straight line on I 40 and get out to the LV area and poke around. Knowing me the choice will be made at the intersection at the last moment.

Whichever way I ultimately select, I am pretty sure that getting back on the road again will be a good thing.
