My trip to ABQ

Albuquerque, New Mexico. Land of Enchantment. I'd say it's pretty enchanting, especially when your best friend, ALL (soon to be ALC!!) lives there.
I want to make this into a postcard : ) 
Our activities included: consuming delicious food, thrift store shopping, seeing ALL's work place, planning a few nuptial items, visiting Old Town & coffee shopping it up! 
Our thrift store purchase:
Old Reader's Digests for FIVE CENTS each. These may appear as wedding centerpieces : ) 
A Julia Child cutting board. 
We also took the tram up the Sandia Mountains. The mountains have a glistening pink shimmer at sunset, hence the name "Sandia" which means watermelon in Spanish.
We somehow managed to squeeze in a road trip out to Amarillo, Texas over the weekend as well. 
We made a couple pit stops on the original Route 66. Including this place that 
grills their cinnamon rolls.WHAT?? 

We also pulled over to see the public art installation known as Cadillac Ranch. 
You can spray paint buried Cadillacs....need I say more?

Hoping my next visit will include 
a hot air balloon ride : )
