More from ABQ

We went to the Albuq aquarium (lame) and botanical garden (cool) yesterday. And we also found a great little babysitter and went out to eat at one of the local restaurants. So yesterday was a lot of fun! This morning I went to a "hot yoga" class, that was pretty cool...but I prefer Vinyasa. Unfortunatly they don't have a Vinyasa class I can go to with our schedule. Now, I don't normally complain about being a dog widow, but I am very sad that Jason has a dog seminar on the same weekend as the two fun events I mentioned in my last blog. Guess Will and I are going without him. Hopefully I will have a friend in town that can go with me...we'll see.

Living in Albuquerque

So we're "living" in Albuquerque now...for a month at least. It's really fun so far. We rented a townhouse right across from a park. It's also walking distance to a small grocery store, Starbucks, and an authentic mexican taco stand. The place is small but laid out really well for our needs. It's so easy to clean and has a private backyard for Bas too. There is even a built in kiddie-kave under the stairs with a darling cottage door. Albuq has lots of great restaurants I'm excited to try, and all kinds of fun activities. At the end of the month there is a big cowboy shooter competition thing. Kind of like a Renaissance fair but in the wild west instead. Everyone dresses up and competes in single-action shooting events. I went a couple years ago as a trade show vendor, and was excited to see it will be going on while we are here so Jason can come and see it because it's so much fun. There is also a cool food event where local chefs compete like Iron Chef. I'm especially excited about the salsa competition. Mmmmmmm, salsa! Anyway, more tales from ABQ to follow. Hope all my Utah friends are having fun. Special thanks to Lara for taking care of Jack and our house while we are away.
