What can I say? I love the ocean and I love the mountains...We arrived in Los Alamos, New Mexico and we found the most perfect place...it's called Valles Caldera. Thanks to Prez Clinton, when he left office he signed off on a purchase of 89,000 acres called Valles Caldera. It was a privately owned ranch that was the most beautiful place on earth. It cost $110 million dollars, and it that was made into a preserve. The year was 2000...Until 2004, unless you were a researcher, you were not allowed into the park. We were able to go on a 4 hour hike that took place on the old 1930's logging roads. The cool part is that the roads were natural ....lots of tall grasses, wildflowers, wildlife and no other hikers becuz they limit the amount of people daily into the park. They have over 2000 cattle, 3000 elk, mountain lions, horses, snakes,chipmunks, squirrels,eagles,hawks and wild turkey. I am sure I have misssed a lot of other wild life. The place is spiritual...peaceful and big...BIG SKIES...See pics...right before we found this place we went through a hail storm...it went from 73 degrees to 53 degrees in 20 minutes...See pics....
