New Mexico 2021

Hard to spell, hard to leave - ABQ has a lot to discover and a great home base to explore New Mexico.

A small, perfect gem of a park - amazing scenery, with amazing rangers and lots of hiking and climbing that ranges from accessible to impossible.

Walmart money gone wild! An interesting art museum in kinda nowhere, some intriguing exhibits and a fun lights show in the woods in the winter.

A quiet park to spend some time learning and wandering, wonderful rangers some interesting exhibits.

We stayed beside it, drive along it, even dipped our toes in it - the Pecos is a good companion as you explore Northern New Mexico.

A three-fold park scattered amongst the suburbs of Albuquerque, Petroglyphs offers a peak into the past with hand paintings and stark terrain.

The King of Camps, Philmont was a quick stop this time, as we make plans for a full trek in 2023.

Get your kicks(literally, we bought shoes on the way), your picnics(several, pandemic travel special!), and your fix of kitsht and sights. The mother road of America, she didn't disappoint.

A hidden cave off a dirt road in New Mexico Mountains! Adventure awaits! We climbed and crawled and carried our dog, to find a cave and an amazing view.

Neon lit gas stations and a chunk of the Blarney Stone, what more can you ask from a roadside stop?

A small museum dedicated to a home town hero, a neat collection of aircraft, space hardware, and memorabilia - worth a stop on the way out or back west.

We stumbled upon this leaving Bandelier, but a serene high alpine meadow and prairie dogs and coyotes to boot.
