Glad it was a nice day for dealing with a volcano

Stopped being lazy and looked through some photos from the past couple weeks. From LA>TX>NM>AZ>NM>CO>WY. Luckily, my window is busted so it opens up and gets out of the way.

Wow. Hmmm ABQ such an underestimated place...

Nice photos over the Rio Grande past the Sandia Mountains and nice picture of ABQ airport with the Sandia Mountains in the background.

Pre race concert. It was supposed to be snoop, but he cancelled and they got these guys instead. I'd never heard anything except that "thrift shop" song, but they played an entertaining set-

Last year Kalitta took off just as we were getting ready to clear customs, both of us headed to the same location. We took off, beat them to top of climb; and at our higher cruising altitude, we slowly closed the gap. Shortly before top of descent, we passed them. Arriving first, we got the last parking spot, they had to park on a narrow taxiway, and well, this...

Did you run? The wife of the captain I flew with yesterday ran it. She called him when she finished and said it ended at the far end of the strip and she about froze to death (keep in mind, they live in Hawaii) getting back to the start line and her hotel.

Yeah, my wife and I run it every year, it's a lot of fun. Last two years I ran the full, this year I ran the half as I've been having hip, knee and big toe issues on the right side. This year they had a 5k, which I walked with my 70 year old dad, a half of the half, the half, and the full, with 50,000 total people in the four events.

The finish is by caeser's, it was cold for Vegas and it was windy. This year was uncomfortable going back to the hotel, but I imagine for a Hawaiian it was a bit like going to the North Pole in running shorts. Two years ago it was the worst, really cold, super windy for running, I was trembling the whole way.

Drive home-
