And the surrounding areas June 4-8, 2020 The Western Slope of Colorado is a region that contains many counties and much of the water that can be found in the state. Nestled in the Western Slope is Gunnison County, home of Gunnison, Almont and Crested Butte, CO. Admittedly, I’d never heard of these places before […]
Before I go into my planned trip, I’m happy to say that my permanent pass for the Air Force Base is ready and I’ll be picking it up in the next day or two. Secondly, I’m going to say, I love working for Presbyterian. Despite losing money by the elimination of elective surgeries during the […]
Since my last trip, a lot has happened, yet simultaneously, not a lot has happened. On February 29, I met Brandy. Her and I have so much in common, but yet we are such completely different people. I quickly realized though that this is a woman that I am madly in love with. She brings […]
I met my partner, Brandy, on February 29, 2020. Before that, I’d never even heard of Crested Butte, Colorado. She had spent some time living there though and absolutely loves it.

January 25, 2020 My plan for this week’s outing was to stop by my parents’ house to drop off some boxes, then head down Corrales Blvd to Alameda, then Rio Grande Blvd down to downtown-ish then head up the El Camino Real senic byway (4th Street) into Bernalillo, swinging by the Coronado Historic Site before […]
I work on the 8th floor at Presbyterian hospital in downtown Albuquerque. The view from one of the windows in my clinic faces north, northeast-ish. The view from that window is pretty nice, especially in the spring, summer and fall when the trees are green, or starting to change colors. In the dead of winter, […]
