Sad to head homeward, but aware there were piles of things for us to accomplish before leaving for New York, we motored the circuitous route to Santa Fe. Only those with a GPS can appreciate how many times I-25 turns due south when trying to drive north to Colorado – it’s insane! Priceline found us a real nice Residence Inn (Santa Fe prices a bit higher than Albuquerque).
Maria’s came HIGHLY recommended and we were not disappointed even though we had to wait a spell for the table. A couple of enormous house Margaritas, a bowl of posole and another of green chili stew and we were set for the night.
