It's March and I caught the bug ---- road trip bug. This has been a horrendous Winter with lots of snow and cold weather. We had a white Christmas which was nice for a change but the snow kept coming. In February we had our first real blizzard in probably 50 years followed by sub-zero temps and then abnormally warm weather all the way up into the 70s followed by mud and floods.
So I need to get out of here for a while. I'll be heading off to New Mexico again.Why again? Because I want to find Spring and I know where it is and because New Mexico is my future home and I want to check up on my humble mini-mini-ranchette that is sitting vacant waiting for me to build my new home. I admit that the Land of Enchantment has its problems but it also seems to have me in its spell.
I have a few things I need to do before I can get on the road. The car was needing brakes so I got that taken care of today. Gas prices are heading up - supposedly because of the fighting in Libya (wink wink) - so this is possibly going to be a little more expensive than the last trip. I also have a case of sinusitis that I'm fighting so I think I'll wait a few days for that to clear up. Watson will go live with Jill and Iris for the time I'm gone....he doesn't know that yet.
