Aztec, New Mexico

Saturday

I went with senior singles outdoors to Aztec, New Mexico to see some New Mexico Arches.  They aren't as "grand" as the ones in Arches National Park in Utah, but they're cool.  At one of the ones we stopped at, there was a crack in the rocks below the arch.  Someone double dared me to go through it.  Being fourteen again, I can't turn down a dare!  So, I squeezed through!  Success!  We also saw some petroglyphs.

Afterwards, we all went to lunch at a Mexican restaurant in Aztec.  I had something I've never had before . . . a chili relleno.  It was delicious!  Great lunch!

Sunday

Someone from Cadence Riding had called and asked if I would volunteer at the Home and Ranch show, so Sunday morning was my spot.  It was slow, and I only talked to the other volunteer, Dave.  Turns out Dave and I went to the same high school in Los Angeles!  Small world, huh?  He graduated many years before I did, but still, it was pretty amazing.

Then Rosemary dropped by, and said she was going shopping in Farmington.  I talked her into waiting until my "shift" was over.  Then, we were off to Farmington.  The new house I'm moving into is unfurnished, so I wanted to pick up some stuff for it in Farmington.  We had a good time, and then drove home a way I've never been.  It was pretty farmland almost all the way.
