Taking a cue from Spaceman, I also fired up Google earth to see a preview of my thousand mile journey to Abiquiu.
I was surprised to see that Google would actually create a video clip of me driving my vehicle through the route.
Here is a portion of my trip uploaded to YouTube.

Somehow Google knew someone would be carpooling with me. Anybody recognize themselves in the video?

I'm starting to feel lucky that I live "only" six and a half hours away! This afternoon I used Google Earth to generate driving directions, and then "play" the route as a scenic tour. It was interesting but surely did take a long time. And that's at accelerated speed, it will be a long drive in reality.
Is there now an airport in Santa Fe, or is Albuquerque still the closest one?
