New Mexico

Well it seems that every other week I travel somewhere, this week I went to Santa Fe, New Mexico. I flew in from Atlanta to Albuquerque and my cousin picked me up at the airport. Well not really my cousin.. he was in the car yes but Barry, my Aunts Boyfriend, was the one driving. Barry has only had his license for about six months. I don't know how else to say this other then he is a HORRIBLE DRIVER! So I feared for my life on the way to Santa Fe.

Once we got there we picked up my cousins roommates and went out to a bar. The first bar turned down one of us with a license that expired so we went to the next and next and finally ended up at this bar called the Cow Girl. Well I should have known from the name this bar was probably a gay bar. All the women were in groups and all the men were in groups. Nothing was really noticeable except the women sometimes holding hands but eh I only noticed this at the end when they were closing the bar at like 12:30???!! Who closes a bar that early?

We went home watched some robot chicken and went to bed. Next day we woke up ate, played settlers of Catan, AN AWESOME GAME, and then went to the mountains for a hike. Well I am not in shape I will just say that and probably lagged the whole group. We went a total of around 11 miles up the mountain to the top which over looked the city and more. Was a nice view but I am not sure it was worth killing myself over. Afterwords we had a large dinner with pork chops, mash potatoes, veggies, mashed turnips, some other things I can't remember the name of. After that we were pretty much beat from the hike and all went to bed.

I got up in the morning and got on my flight back to Atlanta. I tell you what I may start to regret having a manual transmission because my legs were killing me so much so that I did not want to shift gears because having to move my left leg to push in the clutch was a chore. Even as a speak my legs are still killing me maybe I should ice them. Next time I go out there I think we might go see an Opera they have this cool Amphitheater out there. Also I am not sure my cousin realized how short of a period I was out there because last time I took off a whole day this time I didn't. Next time hopefully get to do more stuff... well sort of. There isn't all that terribly much to do out there without spending an arm and leg.
