Amazing!!!

I've driven through/past there a dozen times and never thought it could look anything like that.

Thanks,
Eddie

I use it as background on my computer. Makes me homesick for New Mexico. Would move to Taos in a minute except my wife hates snow. We spent two years in Fairbanks, Alaska and that was enough snow to last her a lifetime.

Wow, that's some shot!

Nice picture. There have been some openings in Alaska and I was after my wife to let me take the job but she kept insisting that I get a drug test before we continued the conversation . And she grew up in the "snowbelt" in upstate New York, where you didn't see the blacktop until spring! When I first visited her in her hometown I was amazed how fast everyone drove around on the snowpacked roads. -Ed

Is that Sandia Mountain?

 

[froggy]

Yes, it is.

Did you ride the cable car up the mountain? I've been to Albuquerque 2 or 3 times. We did the cable car & had dinner at the restaurant once. All I can say about that view in twilight is, "WOW!"

Yes, several times, but not in years. My mother lives on the west side in Rio Rancho and my sister and niece live on the east side of the city just below the mountain. Usually I just sit on my mother's back porch and watch the mountain as it changes colors when sun sets in the evening.
