One long drive ... and a short putt.

Research. Sometimes it pays off when you do it. Sometimes it pays off when you don't.

I did not do any research on Santa Fe. I only listened to several folks who said that it is a "must see" destination. Had I know in advance that the elevation was over 7,000 feet I might not have attempted it. You see, Old Silverback doesn't like hills and I was honestly just about ready to turn around and go back to Albuquerque, but I pushed on and we made it (it wa like trying to use a putter on a long par 5). I will spend the day in old town Santa Fe, soaking up whatever they have to offer.

The scenery along the way was beautiful and at times you could see for about 20 miles ahead. The air is cool and the sun is warm. It is good to walk around in these conditions.
