I had an entire day to get to Albuquerque, and that's just how long it took me.
A family from Texas told me this was the
basis for Cars. Did not know!
The mom told me the
Petrified Forest National Park was just up the road! I have all day to get to Albuquerque!
I knew I needed to get going, but this place just happied me up so much I stayed longer.
I wanted to buy my
annual Interagency pass, but the card reader was down at the front gate. She sent me through without paying ... yet. I paid up a few hours later at the other end of the park.
The sweet young thing up front kept trying to get me to say I was 62, but eventually I will be.
There's always a good excuse to photograph the sky in New Mexico.
I thought I had plenty of time, but I didn't count on a
storm of biblical proportions driving me to seek shelter in a car lot just around dark. After I considered my options, my friend's happy home seemed worth pushing through for.

Joy and I have been friends since we were fresh young things in 1975. Now we're well-seasoned, like elk jerky.
