Yesterday I was able to spend the day with my daughters, Nicole and Elissa, in the Jemez mountains. It was their gift to me for Mother's Day. We packed a lunch of roast beef sandwhiches, veggies/dip, homemade cookies and left Albuquerque with an adventure before us. We stopped first to get our traditional "on-the-road" breakfast of Einstein bagels and Starbucks. Our first stop was at the Gilman Tunnels, and then we continued on to an area in the Jemez Mountains where the hiking was not too difficult. We hiked for about a mile, found a great place to have our lunch, then we hiked back to the car. With Elissa driving, we took the scenic route to Las Alamos, Santa Fe and finally back to Albuquerque.
It was a special time for me to be able to spend the day with Nicole and Elissa. We remembered other "adventures" of camping or other day trips to the mountains. It was an absolutely beautiful day, and I will hold the memories of this "Mother's Day" in my heart.
