New Mexico
In New Mexico, we drove through vast landscape. From prairie to red cliffs to the Santa Fe Mountains. We stayed at Canon AFB, saw Billy the Kid's grave and enjoyed the scenery.

My carefree daughter next to a statue of Anne Frank - young girl with such a heavy load at such a young age. It really made me grateful for the times and country we live in. |
