Cuba...New Mexico

I drive through this town almost every weekend...on my way to ABQ. Its almost the half way point. Its when I get here that I really start to connect to New Mexico again and all the way onward to ABQ and Santa Fe...on my last drive down I had the windows rolled down and could smell burning pinon trees. It was incredible and I could have stayed there forever. But, I had to keep driving. If you haven't smelled burning pinon, put it on your 'to do' list. Fall in New Mexico...its beginning and it is my favorite time of year and place to be...it will make me not want to leave. And maybe I won't.

Cuba (NM) feels a little like the Okanagan even though it really doesn't look like it and I doubt there's a lake nearby. Its actually a very down and out town, like many here in this state but charming.

El Bruno's is a great restaurant and I make sure to stop in to buy their salsa rojo when I need a fix.
