@Paul9221:

Dang, Matt, that's scary!  Not sure if you mentioned it but how did it start?  Just a bad cough that wouldn't go away?

As far as we know.  The kids were sick then her.  The doc tested for all the stuff that’s going around but it seems like it was just a cold at first.  Then shit hit the fan.  Now I’m sick

@Matt:

get well soon mate

Kept the girls home from school today so we could hit the snow play area at the Sandia Mnt…

On another note, we got the bill from Katie’s hospital visit which included $30,000 for being in the ICU. Good thing we still have Medicaid left over from when we were unemployed.

First, looks like you guys had a great time playing in the snow and second, healthcare here is such a racket…just crazy. Glad you’ve got it covered though

We’re in Taos, NM this weekend. It’s a small tourist area about 2 hours from ABQ. The elevation is 2000’ higher. River rafting and skiing are popular here. The JMM Taos (rhymes with mouse) is named after the town since Dennis Hopper famously lived here. Last night we ate at the Taos Mesa Brewery. Excellent vibes, beers and pizza.

Taos is a cool town. I once met JJ Cale there a couple years before he passed away.

Dude, one of my very favorite places. Learned to ski there in ‘79 () and have taken the kids the last two winters. I am with you guys in spirit on this excursion and hope you all have a blast!!

Also, post if you go to Taos Pueblo because we’ve missed it the last couple times and I’m curious what you think. Actually I know you guys have a plan, but I’ve got loads of recommendations if needed.

[Matt]

The Pueblo is the oldest continuously inhabited Pueblo in the US and is a UNESCO World Heritage site so we’ll def go there and get some pics.

Went to the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge today. You know Ed @steelworker will be interested. No wifi now, pics later

Lunch at the Alley Cantina. Rellenos and tamales with a mescal margarita…

[SKT]

Damn that looks delicious.

QFT...and my mouth is watering.

Earthships. A sustainable community of bearded hippies that live off the grid in crazy hobbit holes. As far as I can tell they’re made from trash. Katie loves it and wants to buy one…

[louisbosco]

looks like you're on tatooine with the cantina and those houses..

[Craneman]

@Matt food looks good but I don't know about the bar-all that sun pouring in, it's not right
