Schedules Should be Written in Pencil

Published on August 5, 2009 at 21:19. Tags: ABQ, travel, work.

Well I wake up this afternoon to find an email that I am now going home a day earlier than I was really scheduled for originally, so I get to go home on Sunday. I am kind of torn as I would have preferred to have the extra money to spend at Dragon*Con, but it will be nice to get back home. I need to get my Lostume finished and start digging all of the other costumes out of the bins in order to start packing for the con. The other thing that I am kind of peeved about is that fact that I have not had a chance to get out and take any pictures this go round yet, so I am going to have to try to make it somewhere on Friday when I have the day off. I am thinking of driving to Santa Fe to see what I can find there, but I am not 100 percent sure yet.

For any of you who have been to Albuquerque or Santa Fe, any suggestions of where to go?

Extended stay

Published on July 31, 2009 at 22:33. Tags: ABQ, travel, work.

Well I found out today that my travel plans were not made correctly initially. Instead of being here until the 10th, I was supposed to be scheduled to be here until the 17th. Now I was debating whether or not I could stay. Sirius is coming back on the 16th, so I wasnt sure who would be able to watch him. Luckily Shane is able to let him out, so I will be able to stay as needed and get more money that will go towards Dragon*Con. One of the downsides of this is that I wasnt prepared to be here this long, so I did not pack as planned for this long of a stay, so I will get to do laundry about every two days. It could be worse. As for now, I am sitting here getting paid to do nothing. Cheers.

Sandia Tramway and Peak

Yesterday I finally got a chance to ride the Sandia Tramway up to Sandia Peak. I had some green chili stew at the restaurant, and enjoyed the view.

I made it over to the Albuquerque zoo today to take some pictures. I really needed a lens with more zoom, but I made do with what I had. Here are a couple of samples and a link to the gallery.

ABQ Aquarium and Botanical Gardens

Published on July 9, 2009 at 20:25. Tags: ABQ, aquarium, flowers, gardens, photography, photos, travel.

Today I decided that I would forego a full day of sleep, and actually go out and see some of Albuquerque. I went to the aquarium and botanical gardens to take some pictures. It was nice and cool as a storm was moving in, and I spent about 2 hours there between both places.
