Except for...
...Wind
...Ice Storms
...and those Tibetan Bells
...it's pretty nice here.
But those bells...
The Bells...the Bells...*holds head and rocks from side to side*
Actually, Falcon isn't too far off. There are several pueblos within a 40-mile radius of here.
The largest and longest continually occupied (over 200 years) is the Acoma Pueblo with a population of over 700 and is situated on a high mesa overlooking a lot of dust (what else?).
The next best known is the Laguna Pueblo along Interstate 40 between here and Albuquerque. Best known for absolutely nothing other than a cute little Mission Church, it looks more like scattered luggage than anything habitable.
The people are nice, though.

Hey now hang on just a minute!!!:FI:Macca44 wrote:
and before somebody asks.Yes, we DO wear socks in Europe ,too.
I must point out that Macca's sentiments are NOT shared by all Europeans.
I personally take pride in not weaing socks. In fact, socks were unheard of in Ireland until 1986. They were introduced by a French discount clothing chain who thought they had stumbled upon a lucritive market opportunity. What they failed to realise however was that the Irish are traditionally a barefooted people, calloused and xenophobic. The combination of storytelling, heavy drinking, and walking for miles and miles along stoney roads left the Irish in constant discomfort but the very notion that some alien haberdasher had developed a device to alleviate said discomfort was widely perceived as an affront to the people's very Irishness! So, the Irish gathered all of the socks and rounded up the sock sympathisers, locked them into a warehouse that was packed with explosives, and on June 16, 1986, sent the whole lot to kingdome come.
Every year since then on June 16 the Irish hold a commemoration.
It's known as...
(wait for it)
...BOOMSDAY!!!

Macca,
I noticed some inconsistencies in your download protocol. You better check your settings, lots of errors.
Here is your original pic before the distortions.
No need to thank me, I had a few extra minutes anyway.
