Apparently the goal for this visit was for Liz to do something each day that required a helmet.
Day 1: Sandia Raceway
Stephen wanted to have the Camaro ready for Liz's visit, but the engine was still on the dyno so he borrowed the Miata he raced last season. They had already run a few laps when I arrived after school on Friday afternoon.
One of Stephen's colleagues brought his Mustang so they could run a few laps together.
I went for two laps. Being a passenger is not really my thing, so I got out and let Liz go around again.
On Saturday, we went caving in El Malpais, which is in a separate blog post. Helmet definitely required!
Sunday started with breakfast at the Greenside Cafe and continued with Liz's first motorcycle ride. She loved it!
After the ride we drove to Jemez, NM where we took pictures of the red sandstone cliffs then explored Soda Falls.
This is how it goes. Me: "Liz, crawl in there!" "Liz, touch that weird green stuff!" "Liz, what happens if we..."
Liz: "OK."
On our way home we had dinner at El Pinto so Liz could experience their stuffed sopapillas and I could have my favorite calabacitas burrito, Christmas style (red and green chile). We were not disappointed! The next morning Stephen took Liz to the airport. Can't wait for her next visit!
