I think I've seen that tree.
Maybe that's where our pickup is - delivering the tree.
ALBUQUERQUE -- Someone took an unmarked state special investigations division truck this morning. State police spokesman Jimmy Glascock says there were three guns inside the truck when it was stolen shortly before 7 a-m on Albuquerque's west side. Glascock says a special investigation division agent started the gray, unmarked Ford F-150 truck, then went back inside. When he returned, the 2004 model truck was gone. Glascock says the truck contained a semiautomatic rifle, a Glock handgun and a Remington shotgun. Anyone seeing the truck should call police.

WOW, what a beautiful picture!
Thanks for correcting my erroneous idea of New Mexico
I always considered it more desert.......and I do plan to visit in the very near future!

Oh yes unless the Lord has other plans for me, I will retire (young!) in less than 2 years and I plan on selling my house, storing my stuff, buying a travel trailer and travelling for a year to see where I want to settle permanently
I have never been Southwest so it’s on my itinerary and I appreciate you input, thanks

Yes, I was looking at the link you provided, so lovely
I love the great outdoors, hike, horseback ride and I adore the mountains, Western open spaces, privacy, not having your neighbors too close and
Cowboys! *giggle*

Are you sure?National Christmas tree vs. Blue Room Christmas tree?
Yeah, I'm sure.
To: martin_fierro
Two Christmas Trees? Actually, I should have known that from an article I posted a few years ago, but forgot.
I stand corrected. New Mexico has wonderful pines, parts almost look like Wisconsin.
