Day14, Duncan, AZ to Lordsburg, NM

Slept in until 6:45! We only had 36 miles to get to Lordsburg so we weren't in a big hurry this morning. The movie theatre in Duncan has been closed for a few years. 

If you can see it, the "coming soon" advertisement is for "Raiders of the Lost Ark". A mere 33 years ago but hey, a great flick!

We went to the bakery where we ate lunch yesterday for egg, bacon, and cheese burritos before hitting the road. The price with a large cup of coffee was $4 including tax. 

Once we climbed out of the valley and rode about 15 miles we entered New Mexico. Apparently, it's a popular spot to party and dump trash as you can see. Further on, the road was straight and flat for miles. 

There was very little traffic so we didn't have to use the shoulder often. A lot of the semis passing us were hauling slabs of copper. Two short stacks of copper comprised a 50,000 lb load. 

We rolled into Lordsburg about noon and had time for lunch before our room was ready at the Econo Lodge. The town looks post apocalyptic  with few businesses still open.
