Abq.

I just returned from Albuquerque. My pup and I visited the g-parents, and my family came down from Idaho also. I could have stayed there the rest of the week. That would have been nice. 

There's something about the air, dry but refreshing. There's something about the Sandias at sunset, ominous before the sunset but a piece of art during sunset. There's something about the comfort of being at Grandma's, not home but home. I'm in love with Albuquerque. Yes, I think I could live there.

Mia loved it, too. She cried when my grandpa took my fam to the airport. It was just my Grandma and I packing the rest of my things, and Mia didn't know what was going on. I'm sure she could have stayed there for the week. 

Amid the extreme sight-seeing at the Sandia tram, shopping in old town, eating New Mexican food (sopapillas), celebrating a pre-birthday, I most loved the time sitting with my family, playing with Zoe and Mia, and sitting in the sun the first day I arrived. 

I'm wishing to be there right now, as there is a skiff of snow on the ground in Denver... and more coming tomorrow - just in time for my birthday.
