my town

(courtesy of google pics)

We have been in Los Alamos for a year now and I love our town. I'm happy this is where we get to put our roots down; I'm glad to have our very own town. I feel ownership and loyalty in this our town. Have I told you I love this town? :) Let me tell you...

  • Living in these here mountains makes me feel so alive! and special. It's just something about living atop of the world.
  • Near perfect 4 seasons
  • The Monsoon season in the hottest part of summer to keep it cool, thus no houses here are built with AC (and that's in NM!)
  • Have I told you I love a good thunder storm?
  • Decent snow in winter but not too much (we even have our own ski lift)
  • Mountain biking and hiking trails in every direction
  • Bear, Elk, Cotton-tails
  • Birds singing in my backyard, squirrels scampering around
  • Small town feel, but not too small
  • Friendly people & educated people
  • Old people riding road bikes decked out in gear, staying in incredible shape
  • Everyone rides bikes, walks dogs, and runs, all the time
  • Smiths (it may be our only grocery, but I happen to love it)
  • Plenty of community events and ways to get involved
  • Great area for families and good schools!
THIS TOWN IS THE BOMB!!! (haha, the bomb... ;)
