Go Tell It On The Mountain Part Deux

The past few posts I've had a hard time uploading pictures. The last post just sort of died and I tried for two days to post additional pictures. I figured it was a way of eblogger telling me to switch over to the new beta-eblogger. Being a 20th century kind of fella and set in my ways I resisted. Well I gave in and lo-and-behold I can post pictures...so...

...to continue...

Albuquerque rests at the base of the Sandia Mountains, It is mile high like Denver, just not as snowy. The weather is very moderate most of the year. We get snow. It dips well below freezing during the winter and sometimes below zero. For the most part though you get the four seasons in moderation [unlike LA where it was moderate almost year round].









Lots of great hiking trails when the weather is nice.


Skiing starts December 16 at 'The Peak'. I tried skiing years ago and came close to doing a Sonny Bono --I've never been on ski's since.
But the view is spectacular!!!

Two things come to mind when I hear the name 'INDIANA'

1. Indiana, Our Indiana
Indiana, we're all for you
We will fight for
the Cream & Crimson,
For the glory of Old IU
Never daunted, we cannot falter
In the battle, we're tried and
true
Indiana, Our Indiana
Indiana, we're all for you!

2. Got a tow from a guy named Joe
Cost 60 dollars hope I dont
run out of dough

Told me 'bout a sex offense put
him three days in jail
Stuck in Indianapolis
Hope I live to tell the tale.

Can't go west
Can't go east
I'm stuck in Indianapolis
With a fuel pump that's
deceased

Ten days on the road now
I'm four hours from my home town
Is this hell or Indianapolis
with no way to get around

Called my girl to tell her
of the troubles that I had
First time I've called her in
10 days guess that made her
mad
Far as she's concerned
I belong in this Hoosier state
Stuck in Indianapolis with no
way to set things straight

Can't go west
Can't go east
I'm stuck in Indianapolis
with a fuel pump that's
deceased

Ten days on the road now
I'm four hours from my home town
Stuck in Indianapolis with no
way to get around

Sittin in this bar is gettin
more then I can stand
If I could catch a ride
I really think I'd ditch this
band
Who knows what this repair will
cost, scared to spend a dime
I'll PUKE if that juke box plays
John Cougar one more time

But if I ever leave here I hope
never to return
If I get that van back
Man the road I'm gonna burn

Right now my future's in the
hands of the boys down at
Firestone
Stuck in Indianapolis
Feelin' all alone

Can't go west
Can't go east
I'm stuck in Indianapolis
with a fuel pump thats
deceased
Ten days on the road now
Four hours from my hometown
Is this hell or Indianapolis
with no way to get around

Stuck in Indianapolis...with
no way to get around.

Besides... I'm not allowed east of the Mississippi River. We folk from the southwest are uncouth. We dont use a spoon to swirl our spaghetti out here, we just use our fork!!
