you got that right.

Went out to Cerrillos hills state park on Friday to ride with Robert and get a little dirt back in my blood.Its been about 3 weeks since the last time I got on my mountain bike.No matter how many hours I spend riding the road every time i get back on single track trails it feels like I've sat on my ass for the past weeks {partially true}. looking down @ the hamlet of Cerrillos.

Oldest working mines in North America are in these hills.And its was the turquoise source for  the Tiffany co. around the turn of 1900's.Theres alot of history and interesting things in those badlands.

And alot of character in the locals that live there.

I betcha Blaze Foley /R.I.P/would of  blended into this landscape .One of the few cover songs I took time out to learn.Blazes song writing is right up there with Townes and seeing tears come out of the old timer in this video is one of those moments in life ...and then there's the one with them together

 a yerba buena stop .

Peace

Just a brick in the wall

The snow shovel quit Monday. I'll treat it like the average American employee {dime a dozen} and replace it with  new and improved model. Harsh but true.OK, now that my social/political statement is out of the way.

Our winter has been epic .Ski Santa Fe has over a hundred inches as a base.Its been awhile since that has happened.Spring melt is going to come on  fast and work is going to  be a struggle in keeping up with all the rototilling ,planting and irrigation start up that I have to do.Not to mention this is what I came to Monday morning.The garden shacks wall tumbled down.

Rotten viga .

The canale failed and was leaking down the unfinished adobe interior wall.Which resulted in this.More snow in the forecast for this week, too.Better car jack that up with some 2x4's for support before the whole roof  collapses.

Some audio to leave you with my pretties,Ladies and Gents I give to you a very  special session with Amanda Palmer.

My mind goes blank

First of all I think Barry is too smart for the job.

Man, I could really use that health care plan that you were talking about.Every doctor visit for me is paid for with cold hard cash out of my pocket.Yeah,NM has a state health care system for its citizens .Last time I applied, I was denied 'cause they were not accepting any new applicants.Fuck me too...anyways I could take stabs at the obvious,I'll leave that to the media.Any idiot can point out the bullshit and cry.moving right along
