So these pictures uploaded in the opposite order for some reason and I'm too lazy to redo it so here are the five pictures we got of our drive. I thought we'd taken more but I can't find them. This one and the one below are from a ski area near Lake Tahoe. That's a frozen lake that I'm pretty sure Mandi walked out onto to get the pictures.
Or maybe she was standing on a bridge. There's no way to tell.
This was hands down the best burrito/chile relleno/margarita I've ever had. It was at a restaurant named Quince in a town called Jerome that Dusty took us to between Sedona and Prescott I'm pretty sure. The burrito I ordered was wild mushroom and other stuff. Unbelievable. The thing Mandi and Dusty got was a chile relleno IN a burrito with green chile sauce all over it. MIND BLOWING. The margarita had some fancy stuff in it that I forget but is was amazing too. We also got a dip sampler that had guacamole and three different kinds of salsa in increasing heats. The hotest was ghost chile. It was definitely a food coma situation but it was unreal. I think my camera ran out of memory after this but the town is a old mining town that it built up on a cliffside. It looks like the kind of thing you'd see in Greece or something. It's become an art colony and it's super cool. Mom if you ever do this drive you should definitely stop here. It's right up your alley. I think i even saw some really cool B&Bs while we were walking around. Mandi also bought a neat little tea mug from a local potter while we were there.
This is at a roadside stop right outside of Flagstaff. We had just driven through a few hours of snow and rain and it was starting to clear off as we descended out of the mountains. By the time we got to Haley and Dusty's it wasn't even very cold anymore.
And then there's Frontier. In my opinion on of the best and only reasons to visit Albuquerque. It is the town of my birth, but there are few things about it I like. One the that that do well, however, is food. If you know the right places you can get some amazing food. Frontier has some of the best sweet rolls in the world and they make a mean huevos rancheros or breakfast burrito. Where else is there a pot of green chile sauce in the dining room where you can put as much of it as you want on your own food. I really need to learn to make green chile sauce. It's on my list of things to do. That's it for today. This is the second post of the day so don't miss the one down below. Hopefully I'll have some good pics of snowboarding after Friday so I can do a post on Willamette Pass. That's pronounced like you would dammit for those of us from the south. They make fun of you otherwise. Remember, Willdammit. Willamette. I still pronounce it wrong every day.

I have about 5-6 rolls of pictures on my old fashioned camera.....it takes better pictures and that way people have more reasons to come see us :)
These pictures are great. :-) Hopefully I'll get to see the rest not too far in the future!
This is Carter, by the way...not sure why the Google log-in thing is showing me as Unknown.
By the way, thanks for the clarification...I would have gone on ignorantly prounouncing it Will um 'ette. Who knew!
