John Crankshaw

The greenways are a bicyclist’s treasure in Nashville. We used this trailhead to park and cycle downtown some 45 minutes away.

This museum displays the known history of New Mexico through artifacts and photos. Bummer — the exhibit taking the story from 1912 to present was closed which was NOT explained to us when we bought our tickets. Shame. Cost you a star or two. Most interesting were the RR photos. No punches were pulled in the telling of the early years when European invaded with colonial atrocities.

Our first visit to the FM and we liked it. Greens and baked goods for us. Love the coffee from the cafe. Enjoyed a breakfast burrito and cheese Danish from the snack buffet. Easy bicycle ride in as the FM is right on a rail trail.

Nice outside dining and they seated us in the shade to keep our pup happy. Water dishes conveniently located too. I had huevos ranchero and Judy had the Reuben with fries. The huevos had obviously sat in the pass long enough to overcook the eggs and cool some but not bad enough to send back. The green chili really good. The Reuben nice but the fries cold and of a strange hard texture like they had been overcooked or mis-cooked. They were cold though and our server cheerfully replaced them. The replacements were hot but still hard in the middle with a pale outward appearance. Weird. Almost like potato stix. I’m hoping that this wasn’t the Grill’s usual performance but I wouldn’t go back.

Been to Galveston lots of times and love it always. Great people and restaurants and shops. But this guy really cracks me up.
