I was in New Mexico for 5 Minutes

Just got back from a really lovely trip and it's sort of crushing my soul to be here. I would badly like to set up my tent, but rain is predicted for tonight, and I need to seam seal and find the stakes (yes, I got to my campsite at 9 last night and discovered I didn't have any stakes) before I sleep out in the rain. It was pouring ridiculously when I left here yesterday (it feels like a week ago), and the weather map showed a big column of rain stretching down to Chaco, New Mexico, where I was headed. The only place that looked clear was Arizona, so that's where I went. That and Utah. Hiked Natural Bridges National Monument, drove a route for which there are not enough superlatives to get to Navajo National Monument, camped (for free!) there, took the guided hike to a cliff dwelling today (I'm collecting cliff dwellings), drove another awe-inspiring road to get to Four Corners, got groceries and Chinese in Cortez, and I'm back. To find Hotmail is still not loading, though apparently it's only on Deer Hill's computers. What more incentive do I need to get my own laptop running? I'll post a full report on my travels when I have more energy and patience and am not feeling inclined to kick the computer.
