For those days when you've been up since 5:00 am driving down I-95 on your way to New Mexico.
I think I'm in... Georgia right now? I admit I've lost track a bit. The trip is 28 hours; 15 the first day, 13 the second. I think I've made this exact trip there and back at least ten times before, and let me tell you; the fun part of going to New Mexico is NOT the drive. But you probably already guessed that...
But there are a lot of reasons that New Mexico is my favorite place. I mean, favorite that I've been to. I'm sure it would take second by a long shot to London, Venice, or Rome, but I'm not fortunate enough to have much to compare it to.
Anyways, the first is White Sands. I'd give you a little link but I'm currently moving 75 mph down the highway and don't know how to do that. Google it, guys. It's not that hard. Anyways, it's basically a bunch of hills made out of-- you guessed it-- white sand. It's primary use? Sledding as if it's snow. But it's so much better because it's not cold or hot; it's always just right.
Reason two:
Indian jewelry. My style (if you can call raiding the junior's section of TJ-Max having style) fits perfectly with $6 turquoise and coral necklaces. That's better than even Forever 21 can offer.
Reason three:
People. Yeah yeah yeah I love my relatives.
Reason four-- sorry, had to put you down to make a passing truck honk. So we all pump our arms and... It sounded like a bicycle horn. Lolololololol no wonder most of them don't honk for us anymore; they're embarrassed of their horns!
Well my thumbs are tired so I'll leave you with that stunning insight into the collective psyche of truck drivers.

How did you get the mobile blogging thing to work? Once I tried it and it split it up into about 16 parts, and then sent me 16 different text messages telling me that it didn't work. *facepalm*
ReplyDeleteAlso, sand sledding sounds fun.
