Planned Hike: Loop Trail via Access Road

I have a few more weeks before I move (three and a half or so) and because I don’t have a whole lot of stuff, packing is hardly going to take any time at all. Because of that, I don’t think I’ll even start until like the weekend of the 24-25 of April, leaving this weekend free for a couple hikes.

No Hike Sunday

Unfortunately, Brandy and I didn’t make it too far on the trail before we discovered it was a bit steep for both our tastes. Instead, we spent some time driving up to the Sandia Peak, then back down again.

On I-40, a rock smashed into the windshield of her Lexus causing a significant chip. That obliterated the serotonin she had built up on the peaceful drive up the east side of the mountain.

On the plus side, I was able to get a chip repair kit and make it almost completely unnoticeable.

Anyway, we will try a different, flatter trail this coming weekend!

See you out there!

What’s Next?

As in love as I am with Brandy, it’s clear there are some things need to be worked on before we can have a successful relationship. We both have a couple of personal issues to work out and we’ve decided it would be best if we live apart while we work on those things.

Not to say that we will or won’t end up back together after all is said and done. It’s too soon to be able to tell.

Saturday Day Trip to Santa Fe

Well, we didn’t make it out to hike last Sunday. We got to the trailhead and it was just a little too crowded for Brandy’s taste. We decided to try the trail we had gone to the day before, but it was very crowded there too. We headed back down the mountain and wound up going to lunch instead.
