It has been rumored that Loki left N.E. New Mexico under cover of darkness, questionable circumstances and with a price on his head.

I hope not; I'm too young to be hung by the neck until dead, dead, dead. Or even just one dead.

I did have an ancestor who died at the Alamo.

Unlike you, I have often wished to be hung.

No Alamo references, but there is ample compensation in having occasionally died, exquisitely wrapped in my darlin's arms.

That one is only the 6th string. The first stays in standard. "Find the Cost of Freedom" Crosby Stills & Nash has first and sixth dropped.

Here's a good one Loki

Thanks, Arch...that will likely encourage Loki to lose his head and not show up.

Loki is never alone. I have my attitude to keep me company. Clayton, NM is out on the plains and is a lot of nothing. There is a funny little formation called the "Rabbit Ears" near there. A landmark for the Cimmarron cutoff on the old Santa Fe Trail. I was on the Western slope of the Sangre de Cristos.

Loki is unable to do much traveling at this time. My wife is not able to take proper care of my dogs right now, as far as their daily walks. Especially the pit bull.

I guess you haven't been there in a while. They now have a Best Western, a Dairy Queen, and a Taco Truck!! A lot of nothing he says.

I haven't been to Clayton since the early seventies. As much as I love NM, there are certain areas I avoid, one of those being west of Texas, east of I-25 and north of Santa Fe. If however, you find yourself in Tucumcari, there is a little joint called the Trails West Saloon. It is a tradition of mine to stop there and have a beer anytime I am in town; but since I don't drink anymore, you'll have to chug one for me.

Never heard of the place. Been to Tucumcari a jillion times over the years though.
Have you ever been to the Blue Hole over at Santa Rosa? We swam in it once. Kind of an interesting place.

Nope. Been through Santa Rosa many times. When I used to go back east, I would catch 84 down to I-40, and reverse it on the way back. That way I avoided both Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Just go over the mountain through Vadito, or take the back way through Angel Fire.

We went on one of those drive till we decide to stop vacations years ago and wanted to fish at Santa Rosa lake. It was dry, so we got a room, beer and went to the only feature there. The Blue Hole. An artesian well that is apparently bottomless. We went, swam, saw, went back to the room, did...well...you know...stuff then headed for Colorado the next day. Other than stopping at McDonald's to take a leak, and grab a sausage biscuit, that is my experience there.
