IT IS SO DRY IN NEW MEXICO
It is so dry in NM that . . .
- The cows are giving evaporated milk.
- The trees are whistling for the dogs.
- You no longer associate bridges or rivers with water.
- You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.
- When the temperature drops below 96 you feel a bit chilly.
- You know the best parking place is in the shade, not distance from the door.
- You can make instant sun tea.
- Your biggest fear in the case of a wreck is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"
- You eat hot chiles to cool your mouth off.
