Road Trip Part 4 - New Mexico

Welcome to New Mexico.


You want to talk about the middle of no where? This is one of those places. The landscape was the opposite of the northwest that's for sure!



It was H-O-T.








There was a lot of construction happening. Sometimes we would pass through these tiny towns and I couldn't help but wonder why anyone would want to live there in the middle of no where.










From the freeway, we spotted this old cobblestone church that looked really cool and decided we'd go explore it. That's the one great thing about roadtrips...the spontaneity.
This church was an old catholic church called The Santa Maria Mission.











There were these old weathered steps nearby.






















Yee-haw!











Next to the church, was an old run down one room house...with no roof.













Here's a picture from the inside.
Exciting, eh?











After our exploration, we were back on the road again.
