VACATION PICTURES

Good evening everybody!

A real quick post again tonight.  Don't know why, but I am having a really hard time keeping my eyes open.  Made it to my brother's place in New Mexico today, so thought I would share a couple of pictures.  It got up to 80 degrees today -- perfect temperature for me.  We got here about noon, and took the rest of the day bringing in our luggage, getting a tour of his house and property, and chatting.  He bought this house last year to do a "Flip."  I'm going to assume you all know what it means to "flip" a house because I'm too tired to explain.  Anyway, he has only been here for 3 weeks himself (has homes in Ohio and Texas also), but has done quite a lot already.

We really had a very nice trip down here, which is unusual for us, so hope it continues as we plan to do a lot of traveling yet.  Okay, here are some pictures -- but remember this house needs a lot of  TLC before it is finished the way he wants.

The next few pictures are the scenery by house.

And here are the guys doing the typical "guy" thing on Sunday:  watching football!!
Okay, I was going to through in a scrapbook page but this is way more pictures than I should have for a post,  So I will leave the page until another post.  Until then, I'm enjoying the weather and the sights!!

  5. I guess I have to leave a comment since I just talked to you and you told me I had to stop sleeping and look at your pictures. What can I say other than I am envious of your trip and wish that I was with you in your nice comfortable weather. We seen that nasty four letter word white stuff this past weekend and I am glad it was just a flutter blowing in the wind. Tell Richard his house is looking good and he has done a good job cleaning it up. Love the livingroom picture the best!!!! The two guys reclining on the furniture add to the decore. Sending you my love and hurry back
