Since it was another short day today of only 50 miles, I went down in to Chama and took some pictures of the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad, which is a narrow gauge(3 feet) line that begins here in Chama and runs east to Antonito Colorado. I've added those to the bottom of the pictures for today.
Similar to yesterday, we rode mostly in rolling hills in the shadow of big mountains to the east. It was a nice ride on smooth, lightly trafficked roads. As we rode south toward Chama, the skies kept getting darker and darker, so we got here as fast as we could to avoid getting rained on. As it turned out we didn't need to hurry but we didn't know that at the time. I think it still may rain here in a little while.
Tomorrow is a much longer day of 108 miles to Santa Fe. It looks like we will spend most of the day dodging thunderstorms that are coming from the tropical storm that landed in Mexico a couple of days ago.
