October in New Mexico

It's hard to believe we've been in NM a year now. Woke up this Saturday to snow on the Sandia's - we were very happy to be at a lower elevation and not get any of that white stuff here - but it is beautiful on the mountains.
Didn't go to the Balloon Fiesta this year but got to enjoy perfect wind conditions this Sunday as they all traveled over our neighborhood.
Nice hot cup of coffee and lawn chairs in the front yard are more fun than braving the crowds.

When they go down they go down. Always wondering if they're going to land in our yard. :)
