David and I recently took a little vacation to celebrate him getting his Master's. We went to Albuquerque, New Mexico and really enjoyed it! Of course, being the photo freak I am, I took 830 photos while we traveled! 
If you would like to see some of the beautiful sites we saw, click my Flickr link:

(And no, I haven't put all 830 on there...............yet!

Great photos taken with an eye of respect for the past. The ghost town photos are my favorites. Viewing them as a slideshow is really interesting, too.

Thanks Paully and Soulsearcher! The "ghost town" which is actually Cuervo, New Mexico was amazing! We were on our way back home when we passed it. I had to go back to get pictures of the town. The next exit was 8-10 miles up the road, but I didn't care, I had to go back! Thankfully I have a husband who tolerates and understands my passion. 
The road was horrible, but when I stepped out to get those photos it was like I was transported back in time! It was a little creepy at times, like we weren't alone...though there wasn't anyone or anything around! This detour was one of the highlights of the trip for me!

You've got a great eye! Had to laugh though - first thing I thought of
was the Brady Bunch when they were stranded in the old west town!
I'm a scaredy cat - I wouldn't be straying to far from the car
& I'd be ready to make a quick getaway! (I'd be watching for
snakes & other critters as well!)

Thanks! I didn't stray far, snakes and critters are not my thing! This is when a telephoto zoom lens is real handy!!

Man Yr these picture are great. You must have a very good camera. I liked the cloud pictures and the one where the sun is shining thru the tree. It almost looks like the shape of a face.
