And New Mexico makes six.
... to a couple of hours earlier.
By default, we found the 516 for Aztec and wondered if the ruins there, which the town took its name from, were going to be a $20 National Park type visit, or something over-developed for tourists. You can imagine our pleasant surprise then (as one might say), when we arrived at a sight that was understated - being tastefully landscaped to make the site look as natural looking as possible.
