Hey there, I was stationed at Kirtland AFB in Albuquerque for 10 years when I was active duty.  I'm in NC now, originally from GA, but NM will always have a special place in my heart.  I loved Madrid, Los Lunas, Taos, Sante Fe, and all the puebleos and natives.  Being Cherokee myself I found myself more at home than I ever thought.  My brother who came out to visit me and never left 15 years ago, still lives there.  I plan to go see him real soon.  Would luv to be there again.

Welcome to BYC..

does anyone want to meet part way for a chicken party at a coffee house or something before it gets too snowy for a lot of travel. maybe we could fix it so everyone only had to drive like an hour?
