Last night, Mitch Geriminsky and I headed to the El Rancho Hotel in Gallup for dinner.
It was raining out as we drove into Gallup. It must've been a warmer storm as the temperature was around 43°, too warm for snow.

For the first time, I decided to get a John Wayne Burger, which was a half pound of Angus beef with guacamole, lettuce, tomato and onion. It was quite good with a char broiled taste. Normally, I get chile rellenos there, but a I was still a little bit full from breakfast. Mitch had the W. C. Fields Burger. It was basically the same burger except it had chopped green chile peppers instead of guacamole.
The restaurant was almost full when we arrived. I was told it was busier the night before. Opening a bigger dining room last summer is paying off.

The hotel lobby was full of people, many of them connected to the Red Rock Balloon Rally. Speaking of which, it was too rainy and windy for any ascensions, I was told. Better luck next year.
The lobby had its Christmas tree and decorations up.
Mitch headed back to Lake Havasu this morning around 5:00.
