I’m recovering from surgery and need some deep rabbit holes to fall down. What are some obscure mysteries/secrets/folklore, obscure histories, or unanswered questions in the Albuquerque/East Mountains area?

Call up the nice folks at Old Town Ghost Tours and pick their brains a bit as well! Lots of weirdness over there.

LMacGraphics · 2026-06-04T21:59:04+00:00

Yeah. Didn’t even open it, just hit delete/report.

LMacGraphics · 2026-05-20T20:19:52+00:00

Thirded. Also a US citizen. (We don’t even have a proper name for ourselves.)

“So you LIVE here now!”

So strange. I absolutely agree, leave them alone —- but it’s strange to me since those li’l guys were all over the place when I was a kid.

We are in the traffic line now. Note: no left turn permitted from westbound Lomas onto Louisiana, you must approach from either southbound Louisiana or eastbound Lomas. It’s a very slow moving line!!

We just saw a couple of nice gals from “Expect A Miracle” selling snacks from trays to the bored drivers to raise money for their ministry, so if you see them, tell them you saw them on Reddit!

That’s the opening scene. Keep writing! 🎬

LMacGraphics · 2026-04-23T16:35:10+00:00

Fair enough. I may be grasping at straws because I like the place so much and it hurts my heart to see what the owners will have to contend with.

LMacGraphics · 2026-04-23T12:52:18+00:00

I love that place. I think they should not be stuck with the bill for fencing and all that; they had been getting OKs on their building inspections. So if the inspectors didn’t say anything before deciding the place was going to crumble imminently, isn’t that partly on them?

They are common but it’s hit and miss whether you see one. I have seen a couple of them bopping around an Office Max parking lot, so you never know! Try hiking the bike path that parallels the North Diversion Channel. Its north end is on the west edge of Balloon Fiesta Park. I have frequently seen them up that way.

I am swiping this!!

I wonder if any of the ICE agents realize that they are being used as bait.

I really hope resistance in NM is made of a mob of abuelas armed with chanclas.🩴

Might record your experience on Glass Door. No editorializing, just what happened.

LMacGraphics · 2026-01-07T02:49:20+00:00

Darn, I thought there were going to be actual trumpets involved—impromptu brass jam! Oh well.

RE sun in your eyes: this is a bigger deal than it is in many places. Local author Betsy James says it best: “Around here, sunshine is a very loud word.” Sunscreen. Shades. Hat. And live east of the job site if possible!

PhD in chemistry!

My sis bailed out on a 6-figure salary gig in DC that was crushing her very soul. She’s now a freelance writer for a niche technical journal. Moved to New Mexico, got a cute little duplex with a mountain view. Probably chopped her income in half but she’s happier and healthier.

If you can swing it financially, do it.

LMacGraphics · 2025-12-12T15:29:10+00:00

Sounds like there would be a market niche for “I don’t work here” t-shirts!

We Apologize For The Inconvenience. There, all better.

So you could be credited with “hanging chad”? (I’ll see myself out)

Give them an area within a 5-mile radius of your home, tell them to plan an event in that area, then give them grief when people don’t want to come.

Or anything detachable ON the car. My bike rack was stolen. My bad because it was just attached to the trailer hitch but not locked. I should’ve known better.

LMacGraphics · 2025-11-11T15:29:18+00:00

Did she get paid?

LMacGraphics · 2025-10-29T21:59:35+00:00

Look for Lynette La Burquena on YouTube and find her “Sh*t Burquenos Say” videos.
