Sipapu to Salida, Colorado Sun/Sept 11

Packed up very wet and headed out for home. Again Jordeane's bike would not start. Battery is low and does not appear to be charging as it should. But after plugging in for a bit we were on our way. As we neared Taos there was a very beautiful cemetery which we stopped to take a picture of..
A few miles down the road there was construction on the bridge over the Rio Grande  Jordeane drove  off the road on the viewpoint where vendors were selling their wares. When she  went to go back on the roadway she scraped the bottom of the sidecar unit and the bike thought her sidestand was down so when she put the bike in gear it quit. A wonderful man named Badger came quicky to our aid and found the problem immediately and we were on our way.
Next stop for lunch in Alamosa at a Mexican restaurant where Jordeane proceeded to misplace her key to her bike. She found the spare she had but never did find the real one. So we proceeded on without further incident to Salida and the Mountain View motel. A beautiful little spot across the road from a 7-11 where I had my junk fix.
