    OL had 7 brothers and 2 sisters.
    Her mom is still alive and in her 80's, she has 2 brothers there and a sister still.
    Its funny how one side of the Sandia mountain toward Texas is green and the west side is desert.


    The thin air gits to me after a little while out there.

    Still see a lot of Adobe houses out there.
    Lot of Movie stars live in and around Sante FE Area from what I hear.
    Land is pretty expensive.

    Wife said when we was in Big Bend Area it reminded her of Albq, area.

    The wife usually flys out about 5 times a year to see her mom.

    I stay here and take care of the Dog.

    It's beautiful country out there. I lived in Alamogordo. 11 years all told.
    Alamo is in the southern part of the state. About 80 miles north of El Paso Texas.
    Just a few miles from where Billy The Kid did his running around.
    Spent countless days riding in the mountains. Ruidosa is a ski resort town. The worlds richest horse race is run there at the track. Lots of fun watching the mule races.

    My wife, her brothers and sisters grew up in NE Albq in the Heights of the Sandia mountains.
    My OL 2 older brothers Tom and Steve Davee went to Sandia High school.

    The OL went to Eldorado. She said when her brothers went to Sandia that Eldorado hadn't been built yet.
    Her family lived on Betts drive. Off Candellia and Eubanks.:rant:
