Well, I know it’s been a while but I think I have a good excuse:
I got married!

Mike (the new husband), travels for a living so we have been living in Holiday Inns all across the country. This past week we moved from St. Louis, MO to Alamogordo, NM. It’s amazing how quickly the landscape changes.


We have been through New Mexico several times, but this trip we did our first “tourist” thing. We stopped at PistachioLand! This is basically a large gift shop in front of a pistachio farm but it has one especially distinguishing feature: The world’s largest pistachio!

Tomorrow we’re packing up and heading back East. We have some time off, so we’re going to visit Carlsbad Caverns and then go home and see my parents!
Next stop: Kentucky
