Today for a change was warm and sunny and the nasty cold wind was gone, so we were happy to hang out at home, meet with Thom the guy who takes care of the house, and generally clean up things.(Thom and Dad and a blowtorch were able to get rid of an ice blockage in the pipe that we need to blow water out of the system when we leave. Dad was VERY relieved!)
Then Mom, Dad and I went down to Albuquerque to these volcanoes that are up on a ridge behind the Petroglyphs National Monument, on the west side of the Rio Grande. It didn't take very long for me to start digging! There was a whole prairie dog village out there too, but Mom pulled me away from that. I bet those "dogs" were shaking in their burrows!
The climb up the volcano wasn't very strenuous, and then we had a beautiful view across the prairie to the city of Albuquerque and the huge Sandia mountain behind. It was very quiet, and smelled very peaceful.
