good night moon

we got to new mexico just as the sun was setting.
we drove clear past albuquerque, into a little town called gallup. since the sun had set, we drove this far in the dark, so i have no idea what new mexico looks like. i am sooo sleepy! im excited to get going tomorrow and see what it looks like!
as we were driving, this was the emptiest stretch of the trip. it was super dark because there was no artificial light to mess up the night sky. i have never sen so many stars in my whole life! the sky was inky black and covered with stars. clusters of them, big shiney ones, and tons of little ones. it was unreal! i felt like i was in the bottom of a snow globe. it was one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen!

we have been driving since 9 this morning, and i drove till 1230 tonight! 15 and a half hours! holy crap! no wonder im exhausted! flagstaff, arizona will be the next city we will run into, and then we should be home sometime tomorrow... good night all, my sleepy little eye balls need to go to bed!
