High Winds, Freezing Temps

We did survive the high winds last night....everything seems intact including us and the furballs.  What a night.....the winds were a howling and dust was blowing.  We knew the temps were predicted to drop below freezing so Billy unhooked the water connection.....woke up to a chilly 32 degrees.  You bet, I put my long underware on before I ventured out with the furballs for their morning stroll.  This am the wind is still blowing...not as bad....but combine it with the low temps and well...let's just say that I won't be sorry to leave Santa Fe when we head out tomorrow.  To top it all off....I seem to have caught a cold!  Came down with the sniffles and aches yesterday.  I have been healthy all winter....really irritates me that I'm sick now.  Ah well, this too shall pass and I have some good drugs to ease the symptoms.   All in all our trip to Santa Fe has been a bust....and I don't know if I ever wanna come back!  We will be heading up to Colorado Springs tomorrow.  I'm ready to put Santa Fe in my rear view mirror!

  2. Brrr. I sure hope that area's weather improves before we go to Albuquerque in a couple of weeks. Hopefully Colorado Springs will be a littler more hospitable.

  3. It's a shame that Santa Fe wasn't more cordial while you were there.

  4. You are the second person I heard was over Santa Fe... Is it the winds or the location? Just curious. Hope you have better weather soon!

  5. Too bad about Santa Fe. We were there just last April and it was 80F and beautiful. Just can't trust the weather I guess.

  7. You guys need to find some nice quiet place where the sun is shining and the wind's not blowing! We found one, and now we're leaving. You could have it.
