BHR Day 1, June 23 – Decatur, TX to Raton, NM

We opened the Garage door at home at 5:30 to rain. Checking the radar, it was a small cell, but still, its wet. We put our rain gear on and headed out. It quickly ended with one other brief shower close to Denton, arrived at IHOP to meet up with everyone prior to 7 am.

On the road, ready for lunch at Western Sizzlin’ in Amarillo. Oops, its closed, who knew, fortunately there was a willing Texas Roadhouse right next door.

We continued our way through the Texas Panhandle and into New Mexico. We went by the Capulin Volcano on our way to Raton, NM. It was pretty cool to be in an area that had actual volcanic activity that you could tell by the terrain.
Arriving in Raton and low and behold, we were met with cold beer courtesy of Paul and Lisa, hooray beer!

Approximately 568 miles.
