We had been trying to get out on a short trip since April but, well, life got in the way. Finally, in mid-June, we went for a weekend to eastern New Mexico, with Tucumcari as the primary photography target. We had planned for a 3 day/2 night trip to Tucumcari and Conchas Lake, but an unexpected blast-furnace of a heat wave forced us to truncate our plans. Despite the shortened trip, we came back with some good photos.
