  UNM Duck Pond This wonderful oasis is located on the UNM campus near the Zimmerman Library. The duck pond was completed in 1976 and has become a great recreational area for all.  What a great place to just sit and relax!

Eloise Gift http://EloiseGift.com Your Gift for real estateLast Thursday, the citizens came out to meet City Hall.

Old Town is the heart of Albuquerque's heritage. The first Spanish families settled near the banks of the Rio Grande in 1706.Much of the architecture of Old Town is Pueblo-Spanish, or adobe. Adobe buildings are constructed of adobe bricks (which are mostly composed of mud and straw) that are sunbaked, mortared with mud and protected with a layer of mud or cement. They are traditionally flat roofed, with curved edges, often supported with vigas (wooden beams supporting the roof) visible in the ceiling or protruding through walls. With the arrival of the railroad in 1880, many new building components became available. You will find several different styles of architecture, including Victorian and Contemporary.Thousands of visitors and residents alike come to Old Town on Christmas Eve & du... 05/12/2007

Albuquerque's a great place for horse lovers!There are even areas in Albuquerque itself where horses are welcome, and the surrounding small towns and rural areas are virtually all equestrian-friendly!In Albuquerque:Some of the most prestigious residential areas of Albuquerque are also home to loads of equine residents, and even a large number of boarding and training facilities.

The North Valley, which includes the Village of Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, is located along the Rio Grande and is considered the rural heart of Albuquerque.  With its tall trees, green pastures and beautiful nature filled setting, it offers the opportunity to be in the City, yet with a true rural feel in many parts.  While there are many residential neighborhoods here that are typical of other areas of Albuquerque, there are also farms and ranches, larger lots, estate properties, mature cottonwood trees, and the extensive ditch system called acequias.While you might live in a groomed subdivision in the North Valley, your drive to home can include seeing goats, chickens, cows and horses out in their pastures.  I have lived mostly in the North Valley and love the area.  Being from a hobb... 04/27/2007
