We left Grants a bit behind the other 18 trailers but we managed to catch up.  It was very nice to have a short day, about 80 miles.  We arrived in Camping World and found a place to park.  There a lot of Airstreams there (should have been 46).  We shopped, milled around, ate lunch, looked at the other trailers, mingled, etc.  Then it came time to move out.  The plan was two groups of 20+.  Both groups about 20 minutes apart.  We were initially told we were in the second group so we took it easy.  Then they started saying they needed more for the first group and whoever wanted to go should.  We fired up the trucks and joined the fun.  We left the parking lot and lined up out on the frontage road.

It took about 15 minutes to get to the next overpass so we could get on I40 E.  As we passed the Camping World, we could see the other group leaving.  It was good until we got more into Albuquerque.  Then the local traffic started to infiltrate us.  Plus we had to change lanes a few times.  We transitioned to I25 N and went about 5 miles before we turned off.  Another 2 miles to the compound.  The parking people (a very powerful group) directed the trailers where to go.  We lucked out with our spot.  There is no one else in front of us and we actually can see the grass field from our trailer.  It is about a 1/4 mile walk to the grounds.  Have to get to sleep early tonight since the festivities start at 5:45AM (that is 4:45AM your and our time).

I will have some more photos tomorrow.
