December 17, 2008



Another cold and windy day. We hiked part of the Chupadera Trail. Just about five miles. The last part was too much for older people like me. The trail takes you under I 25 in New Mexico. It is a run-off channel and there is a warning before you go under. Don’t go if there is water. Well, I did not go for fear of losing my life in a tunnel. Jerry went through and came back a few minutes later. Walking up any hill really hurts my back and we were walking up and up. But it was all worth it for the view.

We ate at Acostas restaurant. I had sopopilla,(it was like a hot pocket) stuffed with hamburger, potatoes and cheese with a side of green chili. Jerry had tamale and a chimichanga filled with beans, potatoes and cheese. Both were good.

We found an unusual plant and took a leaf to the visitors center to identify but no one could. We left it in hopes of getting it identified.
We are back at the Casita getting ready for a big day in town. We will do laundry, shop and go to the library to do our internet mail.
