I returned from the Southwest on Tuesday after nearly two solid days of driving in the rain. Ever since, I’ve been trying to keep my head above water. Not from the rains, but from the mounds of work that accumulated while I was away. Some things I can keep up with while I’m on the road. Others have to pile up and wait for my return.

This is a shot from Sunday in Albuquerque. I had hoped to catch the last day of the balloon festival but high winds forced the cancellation of Sunday morning’s launch. You win some, you lose some. I’ll have to make a trip back some Fall when I can spend the whole week catching the night illuminations, etc. That’s the way to do it anyway.

Monday saw a brief tour of Santa Fe before the long drive back. That half-full CF card is still in the Nikon — I haven’t even had the time to download it yet. Very unlike me. Anyway, some fun stuff is on the way. Stay tuned…
