We drove up to the very green ski basin today. Tons of people hiking because there's no snow this time of the year. It was mid-day, cold and sunny up in them there mountains.

Lunch today was at one of my favorite casual dining spots. Imagine a French bistro and bakery in the middle of the high desert. The place is only open until 4 p.m. every day. While the restaurant is open, there's never a place to park and there's usually a short wait to be seated, but the delicious food is worth it.

Today I'm celebrating a beautiful day is Santa Fe. I've called a friend to see about joining us for dinner tonight. In the meantime, I think I need a short nap.
