We just left Durango. We had a fun breakfast and played at the playground before we packed up. The kids slept good last night. Copelin actually slept in about an hour longer than everyone else.
We had planned to stop at Chimney Rock National Monument on our way out but Copelin fell asleep right before we got there so we took a quick selfie from the side of the road and kept on driving.
Our next rest stop was Echo Rock (I’ll have to double check the exact name) in New Mexico. It was a little hike back to see a natural amphitheater, Cope and Lennon had fun yelling and hearing their echo. Copelin loves to do everything Lennon does and tries to act exactly like him, it’s pretty entertaining.
We stopped for the night in Tucumcari, NM. We stayed on Route 66 at the Desert Inn. Kyle also stayed in that town when he drove through a few weeks ago. They have clean and cheap hotels, good place to stop when driving through for sure. When we were eating breakfast a man who was staying there brought in a little bag of toy Subaru’s. He said he is a Subaru ambassador and gave each of the boys a car. They were so excited.
