We really do love living in New Mexico, "The Land of Enchntment," but there are things we miss. Since we moved from Idaho, I thought I would post some pictures from there to illustrate the point. This lead image, for instance, is a beautiful weeping willow and trees from a neighborhood in Sugar City.
We miss the flowers that bloom in the spring. These sugar babies adorn the front yard at our daughter's house.
Green lawns! Very few people in New Mexico have lawns. Water is scarce and expensive.
During the eight months while we were serving as camp hosts at Rock Hound State Park, we did not see bellowing cumulus clouds. I have always been fascinated by these wonderful cloud formations. We are seeing some now in northern New Mexico now that the monsoon season has set in.
Swimming pools are a real luxory in most of New Mexico. We certainly don't have them in the state parks where we camp.
We miss all of our family, and we especially miss this talented son-in-law. He knows how to fix so many things, and has helped us so many times. Here he is welding a hitch on his new 5th wheel so he can tow his boat.
My next post will feature Blue Water Lake State Park near Prewitt, N.M.
