What's going on, Albuquerque?

A short trip home.

A long weekend in Albuquerque made for a good Memorial Day celebration, especially since I am back in Austin and it it in the high 90's and humid. Meh. One thing I never took much advantage of as a kid was the proximity of the Sandia Mountains and their foothills to my house. A five minute drive will put you at the base of the foothills, complete with many a trail and cacti to run into. (Ouch).

The whole time I was in ABQ my mom kept saying "it's humid!" and I just stared at her. Oh well. :)
