Oh! That's LA!

[sabotlours]

I'm back from the El Paso trip. It was a pretty good time. I gave my presentation at an irrigation district office in El Paso. They were kind enough to cater a lunch for us and their employees. I must say that there is a big difference between New Mexico Mexican and Texas Mexican. But both are extremely tasty! Rather than drive back on the same day which probably would have brought us back around 8 or 9, we stayed down in Las Cruces. We were able to eat dinner at a nice local place and it was great that my managers picked up my beer tab. This morning we headed back to ABQ. I decided to fill out my travel voucher right away. I noticed the picture on the travel website and immediately went "Oh! That's LA!" I then played "GeoGuesser" to try to figure out where the pic was taken. It looks like it was taken on the 3rd St Bridge over the 110 Freeway. I can just hear albear going, "Yeah! Duh!" Here's the pic from the travel website.

I have a weird relationship with El Paso. I've been there a lot, but it's always been with my dad as we cross the border into The Warzone Ciudad Juarez. Not counting Denver, it's probably the city that I travelled to most in my life, but looking back on it, we never really got to do much there. Is there actually anything worthwhile to experience in that city?

Oh, and who knows, maybe someday you won't even have to cross state lines to get there... barely!
