I just returned from a long, warm and windy week in Southeastern New Mexico. While there I experienced the thrill of blaring a country music station while driving aimlessly through the desert, being surrounded by the most hummingbirds I’ve ever seen in one place, scoring a zebra print bandanna from the biggest, best Walmart ever- for 92 cents!, eating dinner, surrounded by senior prom couples, at a restaurant where the owner walked around from table to table with a wireless microphone crooning Sinatra, making Mexican tissue paper flowers at a local school carnival, realizing my need to one day own a vintage pickup truck, chocking on the hottest salsa I’ve ever experienced, making some new friends during an unexpected layover in Dallas- and oh yeah, surviving the loudest, craziest dust storm I’ve ever seen!
All in all, another colorful trip out West!

Must own a 1970ish model truck soon… a puppy with the coolest eyes ever- one crystal clear blue, one dark brown
