Guess where this tumbleweed is driftin'?!
I'm going out to New Mexico to be with my pals for a week:
Well actually, to hang out with my sister and my parents (but I will definitely stop to see Ed Larson, who painted that last one.)
To eat:
at The Rancho de Chimayo (among other spots)
Where I will order:
the Tortilla Compuesta w/the tinga beef (not an actual picture, but who takes pictures of the stuff they order in restaurants? That would be creepy and weird.)
To see:
the Albuquerque balloon fiesta
and the high desert fall foliage.
To drool over stuff like this: (Matt Mitchell)
and this
and this
and this
and to generally have an amazing week in New Mexico doing the things I love to do most.
Latest Albuquerque weather says:
high 81/low 55/sunny
(you can knock about 7 degrees off that for Santa Fe)
In other words, PERFECT.
If you kids are good while I'm gone, I'll bring you a treat from Jackalope.
So I guess this is adios, amigos . . .
Happy Trails to You,
'Til We Meet Again!
(about October 9)

oh, and muchos gracias for sending remington. i'm looking forward to it.
p.s. i did check with my library today and they have the 1950s nancy drew. i'll get them out soon to read with grace. (i was on my way out when i asked the librarian.)
I took at least two pictures of food I ordered in Mexico...Clearly I'm weird.
I write on a blog about food I'm going to order at restaurants. I don't think I get to point the weird finger. . .
at least i can rest easy in knowing that high desert fall foliage is not as good as my fall foliage.
but you get to be in the high desert...
you win.
Have a great time Susan. I was in New Mexico...gee...thirty years ago.Now THAT is making me feel old!Thanks for calling by and leaving a comment. I really enjoy visiting here and left a comment on your Nancy Drew post. Have fun!
i wish i was in santa fe instead of buena vista-- but don't call me while eating at gabriel's or chimayo-- cause that would be tooo cruel!
