Calendar: February

I'm lucky, lucky, lucky to know people who are fun to travel with. Last January I went to New Mexico with a couple of travel-friends and had an amazing time. We hiked into a slot canyon,

saw cacti in bloom,

poked around an amazing bridge (which apparently was in some tv show or movie or something that I saw, but I didn't notice it.. how's that for vague?),

and explored some cliff dwellings.

We also met up with some librarian-friends of mine in Santa Fe, and went to a hot spring/spa called Ojo Caliente (hot eye!). Funny enough, my favorite memory was us pulled over on the side of the road while all three of us tried to get pictures of the sunset.
