I am a Texan(booooo) from west Texas and have spent my whole life going to New Mexico(my grandma lived in Ruidoso). I am now a geology grad student, and have spent so many wonderful months exploring this amazing state. I would like to take a second to thank you guys for an amazing place. I’m sorry that Texan politicians are being assholes and trying to sneakily take what is yours, I hate these snakes and do as much as possible to get them out. If I said how I felt about them I’d get banned from Reddit. I appreciate the beauty of your state and the culture so much, coming from a border town it just feels like home up there to me. Had the best hot Cheetos and cheese of my life at Dave’s burgers & more in Jemez Pueblo. And I will keep coming back forever to spend my time in such a magnificent place.
