santa fe, summary style.

The previous night spent in the Sam's parking lot was pretty rough. I may just go ahead and say it was the worst night yet. Yup, I said it. We quickly packed up and went to McDonalds to try to perk ourselves up. It didn't work. Both of us were really crabby and beat. We decided to go ahead and go back to Hyde Memorial State Park, because Santa Fe is really pricey and New Mexico's state parks are really cheap. We got set up, and decided the only way to fix this problem was....day drinking!

See don't we look good and perked up now?
We took in a lot of Santa Fe's sights that day, and it turned out to be a really fun day.

Our campground up in the mountains was really really nice. I'm not sure why, but I didn't know New Mexico had mountains. I thought it was all desert and the second you got into Colorado boom you got the Rockies. We had a really great neighbor at the camp site too.

Her name is Ann, and she was just great. Her camper is adorable, and she just loved Polly. Both Lin and I hope to be like Ann someday.


The only bad thing about the campsite was that they didn't have any running water. There was one port o potty esque thing, but other then that you're on your own. So, we learned the hard, long way is just to find a local community center to clean things up a bit. We hadn't shower in quite a while once we hit the community center, so we may have taken a little  longer than usual. One of the ladies that was also showering definitly gave us a hard time for blow drying our hair. Seriously? Neither of us had had a blow dryer in three weeks now, and only a handful of showers. Give me a break lady. I guess that's what you get in a town of snooty ex-hippies.

And just in case you haven't applied a sticker to the back of a camper in a while, here's a brief tutorial:
