Day 45 - Really big hill in Albuquerque

Today was another day off! I love it. Yeah, I’m definitely itching to get back on the scooter, but lounging around Sabra and Cortney’s is wonderful.

Speaking of the scooter, I got a call from the shop in Utah. My back breaks were completely shot, which isn’t surprising in the least. I’m glad they caught it and are changing them. I should have been checking them more thoroughly.

Anyway, today we headed up the mountain to the east of ABQ. It’s nearly 11,000 feet above sea level - by far the highest I’ve been on this trip.

It’s amazing how out of shape I am at 11,000 feet. Walk across the parking lot? Yeah, I’m out of breath! Even so, we walked around the top of the mountain and had a little picnic. It was pretty fun. I really dig a lot of stuff about this town.

After all that, we came back to their house and mostly just hung out. It’s nice to not have to do stuff. I mean, it’s the weekend and all, right? So why bother with doing stuff?

And on that philosophical note, I’ll bid you goodnight.

Here are my pics.
