I have a feeling it's going to be a fruitful year We have been settling into life here... School has been SO intense for me But in all the right ways it is exactly what I'd been hoping for. My class is a group of 8 beautiful diverse women aging from 23 to 63I wanted to share with http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Santa-Fe/blog-258732.html It can snow here too Got about 68 inches in less than 12 hours. It was mostly melted by the end of the day I took the photos. I thought it was fun with all the statues made for some interesting shots. Hope you're all doing well bye for nowMike and Brit http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Santa-Fe/blog-255452.html Come visit it's purty here Hello one and all and all the rest of you. Not much to say in this entry just wanted to send out some new pictures. Brit started school on monday and she's already real tired but extremely excited. I've got to start cooking dinner more often gotta feed my gal We've been exploring the area a bit more hikin' bikin' and ramblin' around.I broke down and bought anot http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Santa-Fe/blog-251214.html Happy Picture Time My cousin Marcie and her partner Michelle took us on other amazing hike. This one was six miles round trip and left us recovering for days afterward. Like four days later I couldn't figure out why I was dragging ass sore tired grumpy and then it dawned on me hiking 6 miles in snowshoes at 11000 feet will affect you for awhile. So all of these pictures were taken on http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Santa-Fe/blog-247373.html Hittin' the TrailsOur first excursion in New Mexico... This awesome landscape is nestled 40 minutes outside of Santa Fe. KashaKatuwe means white cliffs in the language of the nearby Cochiti Pueblo. The tent rocks have been formed by water and wind over the ages.You can check out the layers of rock on the way up and then get a panoramic view of the surrounding tundra from the top. Even though its http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Santa-Fe/blog-239837.html Hawaii sand sun and not much fun So sometimes things don't work out how we imagine they might... Nine months in paradise turned into two weeks of scooping horse poo and getting eaten alive by mosquitos. The farm we were depending on was dissappointing to say the least. And Hawaii as a whole didn't mesh with our perogatives. For such a lush and beautiful place it is saddening how much its taken http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/New-Mexico/Santa-Fe/blog-238907.html TrainomaniaHappy New Year everybody Miss you all dearly but we're not sorry to have missed the onslaught of snow We rode through some beautiful bits of snowy tundra on our train ride here but we were trapped inside a climatecontrolled caboose. The train ride was a nice slow transition and felt like we were travelling in a twilight zone for 3 days we didn't know and it didn't matter what http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/California/San-Francisco/blog-231900.html Time is such an odd thing when you hold a definition to it. In no less than 10 Earth days Mike and I will begin our cross country travels. Being that its Christmas our todobeforewego list is exponentially more intimidating than it might've been this summer. I'm pretty sure we're both looking forward to a long exhale once we get on the train. We hope you'll stick with us for the journey... http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/Michigan/Traverse-City/blog-228370.html
