Albuquerque, NM

Jared had to take a business trip to Albuquerque, NM so we decided to turn it into a "mini vacation." It was a long trip (with all the stops we had to make) but overall it went very well. The kids were much more tolerant of riding then they were just a few months ago. They actually look out the windows now and enjoy the scenery as we go. They noticed every new place we passed and we enjoyed watching them as much as we enjoyed the whole trip!
We're on our way...


Texas at sunset

Eastern New Mexico- Not much to see! We kept looking for a place to stop and let the kids out to stretch but after about 50 miles we finally just pulled off on the side of the road!
We made it... Where are we kids?

"ALLAKERKY!!!"

Kelly Ghost Town
Helping each other up a hill at Kelly Mine in the Ghost Town. The mine shut down after Sherwin Williams Paint Co. stopped buying. Most of the old buildings have been destroyed, but there remains the church and parts of the mine.
State Park outside of Socorro, NM
We had planned to camp here, but it was closed- so sad...
We got the kids out to play for a while anyway, then headed back to Socorro to find a hotel.

Oh no! You got spammed! I'm so sorry... you can avoid that by setting up the word verification thing in your profile.

Anyway- glad you had a good trip... are you come back via Longview??

Thanks for the tip! Do people really fall for these things??

Actually, we got back last Monday, but we have to go again this week... Longview is a little out of the way, but we're gonna try to swing by- I'll keep you posted!
