Elephant Butte Lake RV Resort... Elephant Butte, New Mexico

I rolled out of the Arizona desert Sunday, where I Wintered after spending 6 months, and started to making my way up to the Rockies. Temperatures were 100+ degrees last week 🔥 so it was definitely time to get up to higher altitudes and cooler temperatures.

I'm traveling through New Mexico and I will be in Elephant Butte, NM for 4 days hanging out with the NKK New Mexico Chile Peppers at their Spring Rally. When I leave here Friday, I will spend the weekend in Santa Fe before arriving on the Front Range of Colorado, where I will hang out spending time with family and friends... Oh, and getting all my medical check ups done... :ROFLMAO:

OhhhhhNoooo! What could be worse?!?!?
Showed up in Frankford KY, all jazzed-up for some serious summer bourbon buying at the Buffalo Trace Distillery. Pulled up to their gate and an armed guard says "Nope, the place is flooded and you ain't gettin' in." Not for the day, but until they get the giant mess cleaned up, flooded bourbon barrels inspected, and the store restocked for ME...their buying public! The distillery is located on the Kentucky River, and the river got all pissed about the serious downpours, and now I'm almost out of Eagle Rare!
And, that's where I am with my Newmar today. :(

Since we’ll be crossing the north border this summer my plan is to stop on way back to FL, should be dry by then😀

They plan to be back to normal in a few days. The bad news is the weather forecast is calling for enough rain to cause more flooding in next few weeks.

Where are you or where were you staying in the area? Are most of the rv sights ok around there?
 
We were at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington…muddy, but acceptable. Elkhorn Creek had high water, but is open with some sites out of commission. Other parks on the river or creeks were in various states of damaged. We’re on our way to Nappanee now.

Wow. Hope all is will be well there in Aug.
 
Overnight Harvest Host at Rocky Mount Mills on our way to Myrtle Beach.

Nice quiet location close to I-95 with great pizza shop. Kids were happy because we were jumped onboard the Starlink train and they had solid internet access!

KOA Santa Fe, New Mexico

I left Elephant Butte, NM on Friday and drove up to Santa Fe making my way to Colorado. My original schedule was planned for an overnight stay but weather changed my plans. A Spring storm rolled in on Friday night into Saturday and the CO and NM mountains received a foot of snow. My route has me going over Raton Pass, which is around 8,000 feet and it got a foot of snow, so I decided to spend another day here giving it today to be confident the roads would be clear of snow and ice.

Yesterday afternoon in Santa Fe, NM
