Albuquerque to Magdalena Photos

We went to Magdalena today to pick up some of my paintings from Peppers Gallery. It was a quick trip. I always take photos out the window and today was no exception. I have taken these same photos over and over I am sure. I especially like the Ladrone Mountains as you can see if you put Ladron Mountains in my search box.

This is the Ladrones from I-25 near the Rio Puerco with the salt cedars for color. You can see some of todays photos on my Picasa albums.

We are spending the evening washing clothes and will be packing tomorrow. Exciting stuff for my blog. We will be on the road on Thursday heading back to Texas. I'm happy and sad about that. I imagine you understand that, right?

You really do have some gorgeous scenery - and painting opportunities - where you live.

And yes, I can relate to the happy/sad thing about vacations coming to an end. Nice to go off, nice to come home!

Jo: That is a great view of the landscape.

A lot of really nice photos, Jo. It's good to see them large, too. I don't much care for desert, but do see the beauty of it.

It's about time ya'll came back home!

Hi Teresa, thanks. I didn't paint nearly as much as I should have. Plenty of photos, though. It will be nice to get home.

fishing guy, thank you. You don't have to do much to get nice shots here for sure.

Regina, thank you, too. I'm still a desert person. I like to sit and look into nowhere. Ha. I'm ready to hit the road tomorrow!

I do love dessert, does that count?

Regina, you got me! I like both. Ha.
