    My lady just emailed me a cool pic she took with her camera. Its from inside the alcove where the Hanging Gardens are looking out onto the landscape. She's a radiologist by trade so takes good pictures.

    Hmm flat rate shipping boxes, anything you can fit in there... Making my self fit is the sore spot.

    Poor mail man.

    Poor Ron... He'll open the box and compressed dreadlocks under pressure will explode all over the room. It'll be like somebody detonated a satchsquatch or blew up a wookiee.

    Oh, the mental images! Seriously though, Ron I had never heard of the hanging gardens. Must get out there to visit this summer when I head into Albuquerque.

    That last show looking out from the Hanging Gardens is amazing! Thanks for sharing! Unfortunately, I haven't had the pleasure of going any farther west than eastern Kansas.

    I'm not a big fan of the heat, but there's something that gets under your skin after you've been there. There's magic in that land......

    Thanks Ron.

    Splash,

    We're a full day's drive from Albuquerque - but a beautiful one across the Navajo and Hopi Reservations...plenty of scenic grandure to take in if you got the time.

    A full day's drive is exactly what I will be needing by then. I will be attending a wedding on a Thursday with all of the family from across the country. After a couple of days with them, a drive through the reservation sounds, to put it bluntly, wonderfully quiet!
