An Oasis Beauty!

Lift, New Mexico,
your tired forehead
That clouds the enchantment
of your peaceful face,
And joyfully receive
the bright crown,
Symbol of glory, venture,
and peace.

I loved the Flintstones! Who didn't when we were little! So I couldn't resist stopping and getting a photo with my old childhood friend.... Fred! I also loved the Jetson's....his wife is named Jane!

Petrified rock? Check it out on Google! We have a piece that we have dragged from house to home for many years!

Traveling throughout Arizona & New Mexico is just stupendous!!!!

For all that do not know? I grew up in Albuquerque! I moved there when I was entering 2nd grade! I loved being part of the New Mexico experience... The camping trips my parents took us on .... there's so much to see! Albuquerque is a great city! And Dearest Stephan came to the University and we met and fell in love! I have been gone now for 37 years but it was such a pleasure to visit my beloved home town!
We met my brother on the way back at a cool hole in the wall mexican place called "Mary & Titos Cafe".... total thumbs up and Happy Birthday Marty!!!
