Saw snow, heading south...

Today we drove the hour from Santa Fe, New Mexico to Taos, New Mexico where we drove over a small mountain pass and saw (gasp!) snow. Not only that but I received an email from my dad who said that Regina, Saskatchewan was 1 degree WARMER than we are. Hmm, pondered that for a lengthy 3 seconds before deciding it is time to head back south for a little longer.

So, tomorrow we are turning the rig south towards Tucson, Arizona (where it is +87F (+28C) today).

I must tell you that I loved Santa Fe with it's adobe architecture, quaint boutiques, art galleries and fantastic restaurants. We even had a very distant brush with US politics... one day we lunched at The Shed (amazing red chile sauce) & we found out this is where Laura Bush lunched when she was in town. The next day we went to Tomasito's (amazing margarita's) & we see this is where Hilary Clinton ate lunch when she was in town.

Taos was great - very picturesque. Not only that but there were some people golfing & others driving around with skis/snowboards on their roof. I think it would be great to go skiing in the morning and golfing in the afternoon!

Taos also had a great playground where Tomas and Toria showed us that siblings really could get along :-)


Cheers for now. Carmen.
