Today we drove from Holbrook, AZ to Amarillo, TX. We stopped in Albuquerque, NM for lunch. We drove down to the older part of town. This is a cool south west town. I would say that it is for an older crowd though. Do I really care about southwestern jewelry and antiques of that nature?
We had tex mex at a small restaurant where the food was solid, but not mind blowing. I will say that I liked the dessert that we got at the end of our meal. Sopapillas. I think that's the spelling. Basically it was fried dough. We added honey to them for a great post lunch treat.
There was a small little town square with an even smaller pavilion for entertainment. This band was playing when we were there.
We arrived in Amarillo, TX around 8:30 local time. We had gone across two time zones today. Since I had so much energy and I'm about three weeks from my marathon, I went for a 20 mile run. I finished too! This means that, barring anything unforeseen, I should have no problems finishing the marathon on October 25th. YES!
Also, on an unrelated note, Vampire Weekend has released they're new single for their upcoming album. Here it is!
