THE ADOBE DELI





The Adobe Deli is just a really amazing restaurant, located literally in the middle of nowhere. The building that the restaurant occupies is really fun, it had so many things to look at, signs to read and a full wall that has nothing but a television screen on it. We had an awesome dinner, Jim, Joni and I feasted on ribs brought out right on the racks they were cooked on and Karl had a strip steak that was incredible. They were worried that it was not cooked exactly the way Karl would have liked it, maybe a little too well done, so they brought him out a 2nd steak, really thick and bbq'd to perfection. They packaged the first steak for him to take home and that was after he ate half of it, he then shared some of the 2nd steak with the rest of us. It was oh, so good. Where are we??? We are in Deming, NM visiting Jim's cousin, Joni and husband, Karl. The country around here is like being in the middle of the desert, lots and lots of sand , very, very hot and alot of wind. We will take off again in the morning, today we did laundry and Jim went to the hardware store and bought that insulating silver looking window stuff, not sure what it's called anyway we cut them to fit the windows to help keep the heat outside.
We are now going to head north. We will go to four corners which is NM, UT, CO and AZ. We want to visit the Aztec Ruins, Mesa Verde National Park, and maybe go to the Navajo State Park. This is all country that we have always wanted to visit but never have, so now that we have the chance to do it we are. Very exciting. More later.
