I'm writing this blog to get me back on the blog each morning schedule.
After the Fiesta I went back to my Airbnb to get caught up on my blog posts and plan the rest of my day. However, I realized that I was too tired to do much of anything. But I was hungry. So, my options were to either get another Lyft (this no car stuff is for the birds!) or have something delivered. I ended up using using DoorDash (link) to deliver P.F. Changs. Yes!
I tried to use Grub Hub (link) but for some reason I couldn't get it to work. Door Dash worked great and it only cost me $1 to have my dinner delivered - $1 delivery for the first month. I'm going to remember this for my future travels.
DoorDash, GrubHub, Lyft and Uber are all basically the same type of service and a great way for people to make a little extra cash. My drivers have all had different reasons for driving;
After dinner I went for a walk in the park across from my hosts home. Awesome park - would love to live near something like this. You can see the Sandia Mountains from the park. I found a park bench and watched the sunset hit the mountains. Wow! Sandia means watermelon in Spanish and some believe that it's named that for the reddish color of the mountains at sunset.
Back to my Airbnb with plans for an early night, but I ended up chatting with my host for several hours. Very interesting women. If you are ever in Albuquerque and looking for a good stay I recommend her (link).
This is how you build a walking/running trail! Half gravel, half asphalt. Brilliant!

- Making some extra cash for an upcoming vacation
- School teacher who is supplementing his income
- Massage therapist who recently started his own business and uses his time with passengers to hand out his cards and promote his business.
- Writer who is supplementing his income

Today I pick up my car and wind my way to Santa Fe which is only about an hour away - but so much to see that I'm going to take all day doing it.
