green

Yesterday: vegan sushi denied (the place was closed), went to Lake Roberts where we hiked and got bit by multitudes of mosquitoes, visited a hot, dim grotto with flickering candles and the smell of roses, read poetry while Ming mowed the lawn, visiting a man in a cob house who we were warned might be naked and saw his garden overrun with grasshoppers.

Verdict: New Mexico has a lot of grasshoppers.  I expected it to be sand and amazing rocks, but this part at least is very green.
