The traces of a now-gone crucifix were visible on this metal cross. I liked that.

The cemetery was right up against an on-ramp to the interstate and there was a constant flow of traffic – a lot of people were headed toward Albuquerque. I like that, too, for some weird reason that I can’t quite articulate.

The northern end of the Sandia Mountains was there also. I like it especially because you could still see snow in some of the shady spots up high.

So I guess what I’m getting at is that this stop was definitely worth my time.
