Today we took a 100 mile ride from our house to Las Vegas (New Mexico, not Nevada). It was awesome! We took dirt ranching roads and it was so beautiful! Here we took a snack and water break.

Today we packed the kayaks for our trip next weekend, where we will be kayaking down the Green River through Canyonlands National Park in southern Utah. I was able to stuff the sleeping bag into the front cargo area. Success! I am soooooo excited!

The spinach just exploded! We are starting to harvest it!

The sunrise is illuminating the gazebo and Romy needs to take the bike to work so we can get an alignment on the Subaru.

We found another good hiking trail.

A co-worker gave us this 10 year old tree because it outgrew her window area. I LOVE it!

This is the San Francisco River in New Mexico. There is a hot spring down there!

Today we finally went to see the Gila Cliff Dwellings! We were here 5 years ago, but a huge storm washed the bridge out which went to the cliff dwellings so we never saw them!

We are camping in the National Forest somewhere between the Very Large Array and the Gila area. There were huge volcanic cliffs. We saw so many animals! Elk, fox, coyote, Montezuma quail, antelope, javelinas (wild boar), basically every animal that lives in mountainous New Mexico except the cougar. We did not see a mountain lion but I was really expecting to after all the wildlife!

On our way to work!

Cold, cloudy, windy, cold. We decided to go on a hike after work today towards the Sandia Crest. We are at 10,000ft. Isn't that just awesome how we can go on a hike after work and be at 10,000 ft!?!? Oh. . . and we ran into a BLACK BEAR on our hike! Thankfully it ran away from us.

Things are starting to grow in the green house!

Romy got something from Amazon! We just decided to get Amazon Prime since we do so much ordering. Don't you just love the 70s floor?

Romy is blinded by the sun. We are going on a hike down Coyote Rd (at least that's what I think its called).
