Welcome to our blog.

New Mexico is famous for it's balloon festival.

Margaret and I spent the summer of 2015 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where I was attending a ten week course at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America.  Margaret had been suffering from respiratory problems.  Her health improved so dramatically while there that we decided to sell our home in Rexburg, Idaho and move to New Mexico. 

We took many pictures travelling to and from New Mexico and thought others might enjoy sharing our adventures.  Our goal is to visit as many state and federal parks and other locations as possible.  We will post some of the photos we took.  Included will be plants, animals, birds, lizards, and occasionally insects, and we’ll include the locations where the photos were taken. 

We will attempt to identify as many species as possible.  We welcome comments and help with identification.  Please keep in mind that I am not more than an amateur photographer, and even though I have a background in science, I do not claim to be an expert at identifying all the flora and fauna I post.
