Lovely photos - you've really been getting around!

I love "Railroad Mountain" and I always like driving "over" it --what a great name for a slight rise in the prairie...

Yeah, it is a neat place, the two parallel rows of rocks on the top going off in each direction forever... it seems like. It's a shame they are starting to mine the rocks and destroy it all.

I love all the pictures, Raymona...

What a lovely variety of pictures of places in our state!

I like so many I can't choose a favorite, but the mountain ones always seem to be favorites with me.

Mine too... We just love the mountains. We went up to Taos today for just a couple of ours. Can't wait for warmer weather so we can explore up there more.
