Santa Fe's Railyard District
Mike Gerrard is in Iowa, getting ready for a drive to Santa Fe where he'll spend 3 nights, mainly researching the new Railyard District and eating as much good New Mexican food as he can manage. Then it's the open road again continuing the research trip for Insight's USA On the Road guidebook update, finally arriving back in Arizona.

The skipper wasn't optimistic about seeing a humpback. We were too late in the season, he reckoned. With the approach of the wet season in the Buccaneer Archipelago, the air was sticky and the water a "cool" 29C. Then, on the horizon, a faint splutter. With the twin-engine in full throttle, we sped in pursuit. For minutes, nothing. Then a gleaming black-and-white humpback torpedoed out of the water, landing on its back with a loud smack. There is nothing like a close encounter with a 35-ton whale for an intoxicating high.
