Day 5

We are a little late with our entries today because we wanted to get to M-R's friend's home in Santa Fe before noon. Yesterday we did both the OK & TX panhandles and were very impressed by the huge wind farms and a truckload of eco-cabs (pedicabs heading to Sedona or someplace for enlightened tourists), and the vast potential that the US has for clean energy production. Let's keep it up, guys. After camping in Santa Rosa, we made it to Santa Fe and are looking forward to taking a nice long walk this afternoon & tomorrow.

Atravesamos Oklahoma y Texas, para dormir en un camping en Santa Rosa, New Mexico. La ruta nos regala sorpresas: una granja eolica en medio de un tambo, y transportes de todo tipo, desde turbinas hasta eco-cabs. En Oklahoma, predomina el marketing cherokee. Entramos en Texas, y a nuestra derecha nos acompana una pequena ruta - adivinaron! la vieja Ruta 66. Seco, seco, seco. Dimos con el primer museo, en la ruta, aprox. 3 de la tarde! Devil's Rope Museum, o Tributo al Alambre de Pua. Museo de pueblo, pueblo museo, en medio de la sequedad y la nada. Alucinantes colecciones de alambres de pua! Fotos, cruces ("La cruz es el simbolo mas antiguo de la humanidad" decia un cartel.
