Goodbye New Mexico

Telescope in the desert. Desolate roads.

Beautiful Bosque del Apache Wildlife Refuge

A must see - Sandhill Cranes and Snowgeese and Mountain Lion too!

Sandhill Cranes

Overwhelming

The beauty of the American southwest is  absolutely overwhelming. I took this shot early this morning on the road from Moriarty to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Later we visited my friend Mary Carol and her son Chris in Albuquerque.

Santa Fe

On our way to Santa Fe then Albuquerque.

Abilene on the way to Albuquerque.

Up early and on the road from Abilene to New Mexico. Distances are vast here in Texas. What? We're still in Texas? !
