(sorry people reading via rss feed, the wordpress 2.0 update messed up my lj-cut plugin, so I am trying a page thing, but it may well just stuff them all on to one page for rss feed)

First stop was Los Alamos to hang out with my friends there and their kids.

The dogs of course traveled in style, it’s and it’s hard work:

New Mexico is far. Lots of open road:

Spot the anti-lope:

Los Alamos is in the middle of no-where, on top of a mesa. It’s a pretty steep windy little road to get up there.

There you can see a bunch of the labs buildings on the edge of the mesa:

We had a lovely evening relaxing in front of the fire and taking it easy. We did some prep work for santa to show up later that night.
