Austin-Maupin Greetings from Ojo Sarco, NM

[zblair]

Upwards of 8000 ft on the top of a mountain, we're at the Casa de Olds/Wa Nova Gallery and it is stunningly beautiful here. Bluer skies you have not seen.

Haven't visited with my friend Gayle in close to 5 years and she is amazing and wonderful as always. We've known each other since the mid-1980's.

We've been hanging out, sipping shots of Tequila and having such a grand time laughing about old times, current times even some future times.

We've taken some photos that I will have to post tomorrow, limited bandwidth here and I want to be a gracious guest. Jeffrey is enjoying the peaceful escape. Good timing for this!

Higher and higher you climb.
Until the ground fades away into gray--the sky purple above you.
The oxygen masks on.
Take off a glove and you'll lose a finger.

Oh wait, I'm paraphrasing a line from Memphis Belle again.

I love NM.
Are you passing near Taos?

Do you have any sudden urges to get a law degree?
Ho ho ho,
hambone, at your destination

Actually near Taos but instead heading West through Abiquiu, NM; Pagosa Springs, CO; Cortez, CO and then into UT ending up at Green River, UT....It will be an amazing day of beauty and the weather has been picture perfect since I got up at 6am...
