Having Fun in New Mexico

So to start up where I left off. Wednesday we went to Paloma's Mexico and did some shopping. Our main reason was to get my prescription drugs because I don;t have insurance until January. They were very reasonable. I could buy a years worth for the price of  a month here in the US and the other one was even cheaper, worth the trip. We had lunch at the pink store, that's the name of it and it was very good and cheap with free Margaritas. It was very easy to get in and out and no one with guns. I think we are going back next week with a group from the park.
Thursday we went to our rock club for a big Thanksgiving dinner. There were about eighty different dishes to choose from along with the turkey, mashed potatoes and dressing. I had to waddle out. There was allot left so we took some home and that's what I am having tonight, so much for the diet.
Today we went to La's Cruses with our friends Keith and Zillah and did some shopping. We went to Sam's Club and Hobby Lobby then had lunch at a new Italian Pizza place. The restaurant has all it's ingredients shipped in from Italy, even the flour for the dough. They bake the pizza in a wood fired oven. It was very good. After lunch we went to The New Mexico State University Geology Museum. They had a wonderful display of Petrified Wood and Dinosaur bones.
If you click on the pictures they will enlarge.

Tomorrow we are going to the rock club and work on our rocks, we only have a few days left to get the rocks done before we move on. We will miss all the friends we have made here. Until next time.
