Day 2 in Albuquerque

Byjnkdblog

Another adventure in camping- we realized last evening our trailer is not as level as it should be, so we manually leveled the trailer, and tried to recalibrate the level point and it did not work. This morning Jerry called Lippert, the manufacturer, and discovered one of the buttons of the automatic leveling system keypad is not working! After calls to several RV parts places we finally found a dealer in Amarillo, TX (our next stop) who could order the part and have it delivered Monday, which is the day we leave Amarillo. Fingers crossed it arrives!

Our campground is on old Route 66, so we took the opportunity to drive on it a bit to get to our destination today, the Indian Pueblo Cultural center. The museum was very interesting, telling the history of the Pueblo Indians, their culture and art. The museum also has a rotating exhibition area, and right now it shows skateboard decks painted by various Pueblo Indians, and they were beautiful, each different from the next, and most highlighting something from their culture. We also saw a dance demonstration, and visited with some of the artists who create beautiful jewelry and pottery. Lunch was in the museum restaurant and it was delicious- I recommend the Tewa Indian Fry Bread Taco!

We were planning to take the tramway to the top of Sandia Peak this afternoon, but it is getting too windy, with gusts nearing 40 mph here on the valley floor. We may even put the trailer slides in tonight so we don’t rock and roll so much! Tomorrow we leave for Amarillo!
