Statues of Art, Canadian Tuxedos and Long Earred Squirrels

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 another bike (only 20 bucks). It's a small project - an old one speed without a brand name on it. My uncle Mike gave me an idea for the next blog. Theres a guy in town who sells a bunch of old vintage bikes. He just locks them up to various posts around town with his phone number written on cardboard attached to the bikes. There are some really cool bikes. So I'm going to take pictures of them and make all the bike lovers on this blog drool.

The weather here has been pretty nice. It was 70 degrees a few days ago, though the day after that we got two inches of snow. The snow doesn't last long since it's so sunny here. Temperature wise it's a bit warmer than Traverse City, definitely less snow. I will say, since we're at elevation, the nights get much colder on average. Plus it's extremely windy in Santa Fe. 10-15 MPH almost everyday.

I went for a run/hike up in the mountains outside of town on Sunday and I got to watch a storm roll in from the high desert plain. I started at about 7500 feet and got up to around 9100. I plan on taking Brit up there very soon.

Anyway, not much to report otherwise - getting into a routine will do that. I hope all of you continue to enjoy the pics - at least that's new and exciting for everyone. Take care for now, give us a shout if you feel inclined to do so.


Mike and Brit
