Godfrey ======= Thanks. Well, be warned, this time of year there is standing water, ergo, mosquitos. And they close part of the park. >From Albuquerque itself it really only takes about 40-45 minutes or so to get there. Not a bad side trip at all. I have a hard time estimating how long it took, because I was held up for quite a while at a government check point. This happened twice to me in New Mexico. They are looking for illegal aliens not really for illegal substances. So factor that in as well; weekdays are probably better than weekends. I'd say I was held up for about 20-30 minutes (it seemed a very long time). And at some hours and on some days I am sure it is even longer. There are a lot of military bases in New Mexico too, which, I am sure, is part of it. Especially in that area.
