😄 Yeah Thom, that's probably not the Chamber of Commerce's motto. You as a resident can correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that ABQ has long had its rough patches, but 2021 saw some extraordinary increases in crime.

@@GrandAdventure I'm sure it isn't, but it is too true. I no longer live in ABQ. My daughter a former APD officer left for safer climes too. The homicide rate is one of the highest in the nation. It saddens me, but over the years things have just gotten worse. It has been headed downhill since the 60's and now sadly it is beginning to happen in Santa Fe, especially this past Summer. It's still pretty safe in most areas and once you are out of the cities things are much more pleasant, so I do not wish to scare people off! Again, great job on the video and thanks for the comment. You've only scratched the surface of what there is to see out there. You could spend a few years just in N. Mex doing shows and not cover all of it.

We really enjoyed our stay in Santa Fe, but sadly it was just too short. We were in a hurry to get to Bandelier National Monument and explore that while we were there, saw our cousins who lived there eat the time, but then had to bug out after just a couple nights. Had no idea about the Turquoise Trail, but gives us all that more reason to go back!

This looks like an area to explore with our ATVs. Santa Fe Skies RV park you stayed at reminds me of my father's collection of antique utility engines and tractors. I'll bet he could have spent days looking at that collection. Glad to have you back our SLC area. Maybe we will run into each other and we can talk about my upcoming premier of Marvelous Marv - Marvelous Performance Products. Hope you enjoy all this new snow we got.

Went to Santa Fe last fall and enjoyed every minute. The old town square area of course was a highlight but we also enjoyed Meow Wolf , riding the bike trails and hillside spa action. When you pass by Las Vegas NM, stop in at Pedro's Bakery and buy 10 loaves of their cinnamon bread...you won't regret it. Check when they are open as they didn't have regular hours.

What we remember most are the stunning sunsets…and you captured these very well in this episode. What we haven’t done is the Turquoise Trail…that is now on our radar for our next visit. We arrive back at our home next week, so having internet access will get much easier. We will continue to watch your off season videos, because we learn so much. Hope that you, Mrs. GA, and Zoe have a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year.
