New Mexico

We haven't had much happen recently that seemed worthy enough to blog about. No pregnancy announcements, no moving notice, nothing really. Ivy continues to work to put me through school so we don't always have time to get out and do the things that we would like to do. However, we finally have something to write about. This week we drove down to New Mexico. I guess you could say that this is the first time in the state for both of us. (I went to 4 Corners once, but I don't know if that counts.)
Saturday we drove down and stayed the night in Price at my parents' house and Sunday we began the long drive to Santa Fe, where I will be doing some research for my Master's Thesis. It was only an 8 1/2 hour drive from Price to Santa Fe, but we passed through at least 6 Indian Reservations. We kinda laughed/felt bad about the horrible condition the houses that we saw were in, but were amazed at how giant and spacious the casinos were. They were by far the nicest buildings that we saw during that part of our trip. That was about the most fun that we had because the drive was so long. Tomorrow we are heading down to Albuquerque so that I can bury my nose in the archives while Ivy enjoys the nice warm weather. The only problem is that she has a wicked sinus infection. Hopefully that will clear up quickly and then we can enjoy some of the sights together.
