Ah; Colorado and New Mexico

Enjoyed reading the offerings from the members of the choir.

My recommendation: alternating Summer months in these state. Lots of motels and restaurants or a midsized well-equipped RV.

I admit to being biased towards the Cumbres & Toltec. Enjoy the whole Chama yard; What a museum! Viewing the Eastbound in the Morning, Chama to Cumbres. Sublette. Carry the fantastic aerial photography books. The Chama and Antonito engine houses may be viewed from the door-lines. Include the Antonito car rebuild shop; and the Colorado Springs shop

CRM; for a day or two. Much noisier on weekends.

Let the two states learn that you are heading their way.
