A Taste of Gallup, New Mexico

My Left Foot


Gallup, New Mexico


Rocks!


I considered staying here, but the online reviews warned me away.


They had a hamburger called "The Ronald Reagan": cheddar, bacon, side of jelly beans. I thought "My name isn't Nancy!"

My hamburger - Let me show you it
Next: A death-defying hike in Red Rock Park!


Racing a train on Route 66.

I could also post pictures of the duvets in the Grants and Albuquerque Comfort Inns.

Now why wasn't that left foot up on the table next to that dinner? Hmmm?

In my smart-assery, I forgot, beautiful photos, but then it's hard to take an ugly photo of NM.

I love that sandstone.

Yeah, very cool. Is the guacamole, or whatever, on the hamburger in the shape of Jesus on the cross? And you ate it!!!

If it were, I think it only fitting that the pickle spear be stuck in its side... just to make sure it was done.

Also, a little Ketchup on the guacamole palms and feet. Just sayin'.

I'm home!

And the rental car lot even had my sunglasses, which more than made up for a day that began with forgetting that I had set the Garmin for "shortest distance" rather than "maximal use of highways" after it made me get on US 40 to get back to my hotel after dinner (2.1 miles away) last night.

This led to a lesiurely Sunday drive (except for the speeding) through downtown Albuquerque to return my rental car and reaching the ticket machine at 9:16 for my 9:45 flight.

NO TICKETS 4 YOU! LOLZ!

(You must get tickets 30 minutes before departure.)

YOU CAN HAZ STANDBY PASS FOR NEXT FLIGHTS.

Then a long wait at security...ooops I left my shaving cream can in the backpack, time for speshal treatment! And

Fnally I got to the gate and they let me on, but my new seats were back by the toilets for both flights.

How could you not stay at a place that has the "charm of yesterday, and the convenience of tomorrow"? For shame, sir.

Yesterday & tomorrow all well & good, but we live in the now of today!
