    Whether that was intentional or due to an auto-correct or speech recognition system, either way it made me smile. And if anyone's puzzled, look at the map of New Mexico to see where I-40 and I-25 cross each other.

    I picked it up from when I watched Kitten the Youngest googling where we were going and Albert Turkey was what she typed in :beer:

    Thanks Murphy, I'll get there sometime! We last went to the mountains 15 years ago, I was ill in the middle of nowhere & we had to come home early. Since then the wife has had heart problems that made her dubious about travel to out of the way places. The last few years I've got her to Florida - lots of old people so lots of medical facilities - but this was going to be the first time back to the real America.
    Perhaps next year.

    I know what you mean about having to bear in mind the availability of medical places.
    Its a balance isn't it - having a bit of an explore, without having yourself to far away from medical treatment if the need arises.
