Sandia Crest Tramway

Thanks to a middle-aged friend for explaining that neither of us have "crested" yet. That's reassuring to know, but I do like the crested crane hairdo. When I reached the Sandia Crest Tramway in Albuquerque a storm was brewing. Two storms, actually, both approaching the Sandia mountains from the west. To the northwest I watched a group of dust devils traveling parallel to county roads. Slightly south, I watched a rain storm cloud darken from blue gray to rich, velvety, swirling CHARCOAL BLUE. Amazingly, I am transported to memories of our neighbors' long-haired blue-gray cat forty years ago.
