New Mexico


Back when Jude was a baby, while Jess and I were working at Spring Canyon, we took a trip down to Sante Fe. The highlights of the vacation were eating out, cable television, Southwestern architecture, and "Coyote Ugly" in the local theater (Jude loved it). So since it had been a while, we decided to take the family back for a short vacation this past week. We left Monday morning and drove south for just about five hours. It's amazing how the scenery changes gradually, and by the end of the relatively short trip we were someplace so new. The weather was nice the whole time we were down there, and we enjoyed taking a walk through the old downtown area which included the Cathedral seen in the picture, as well as a bunch of fun shops, art museums and historic buildings. We ate enough Mexican food to, well enough to fill our Mexican food quota for a little while at least. We got to go swimming three times at the indoor pool where we stayed. And once again we got to enjoy the benefits of cable television, although this time we watched a lot more Cartoon Network than last time.
I hope you all are having a great time, and had a Happy Thanksgiving. See you soon.
