Sandia Man Cave in the Jemez Mountains

The Sandia Man Cave is cave in the Jemez Mountains near Placitas that was found in the 1930's. It was excavated and the remnants of the cave were removed to the University of New Mexico. There is now a hiking trail, a fence, and a small spiral staircase that leads up into the cave. It is an easy hike from the parking area but not so easy if you are afraid of heights. In my picture you can barely see the spiral staircase and cave entrance in the upper right corner of the picture.

Baseball in New Mexico

I wanted to share a quick picture of our baseball team, the Albuquerque Isotopes, in action this past summer. We do not have a lot of major sports out here but we have some. Enjoy the pictures.

New Mexico Winter Sunset

Here is a great picture a day after some heavy snowfall. This picture is of the Sandia Mountains at sunset and shows both the snow and the pink mountain sunset we are always accustomed to seeing.

A very peaceful site to come home to after a long day at work.

Lots of Snow Today in New Mexico

I took that picture of the upcoming weather in the mountains a couple of days ago only to wake up to this a few days later.

Lots of people think that New Mexico is a dry and barren wasteland but as you can see it has a lot more to offer.

Beautiful December Morning near the Sandia Mountains

I woke up to a different site this morning of the Sandia Mountains. I am usually greeted in the morning with a big bright view of the Sandias but this morning shows that we do experience the seasons here in Northern New Mexico. Notice the low lying cloud cover or fog in the valley.
