We Went to New Mexico

I know, I know, where have you been is the burning question.  It's summer people!  It has been as hot as a witch's broom all summer...it is killing not only my appetite but my desire to be productive.  Sound familiar?  I find myself place next to an air vent, under a fan with my nose in a book.  I stay up way to late watching movies, wondering how I will ever turn my body's time clock around to report to back work come August.  

As we are about to embark on another summer getaway I figured maybe I should finish what I started to blog about in June.


So I present in picture form the beauty of New Mexico's Enchanted Circle

Hiking near our Tolby Campground site

 The poor trees had a carving knife to them more so than not...lots of him plus her equals true love and names and dates, but this tree got a Picasso carved on its trunk.
This trail was a water fall walk...7.5 miles moderate round trip hike.
The next day we took to laying on the beach of Eagle Nest Lake surrounded by the mountains of the Enchanted Circle


Next onto Red River.  Our favorite of the sweet inviting ski towns that make up the Enchanted Circle....

Ooooh, how lovely. Me--I'd just hike to that lake and stay there. That's my kinda vacation. :)

Sad about those trees. Why do people harm them like that?

Lin- you would think since the trees are.part of a national forest people would be doubly respectful of nature and leave the trunks of those poor trees alone. Guess there will alwys be those "I'll show you how daring I am" morons who claim to love nature.
