April 2007 Trip to New Mexico

This trip to New Mexico was really wonderful, it was in the spring so the temperatures were in the 70's
James and I saw many new things, the lovely desert mountains, cactus and countryside we had not seen before.
It was a wonderful trip and I'd love to return and see more of it someday.
