Trail building equestrians of New Mexico

[Una Smith <una.smith AT att.net>]

Friends in Los Alamos have been walking a long distance pilgrim trail
in Europe, to a shrine in Spain.  There is a Wikipedia article about
the pilgrimage:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Way_of_St._James

Today in the Los Alamos Monitor (newspaper) is a short article about
my friends' walk:

There is an equestrian travel adventure book about riding 1600 km of
this pilgrimage, called "Riding the Milky Way".  Maybe a good holiday
read?  http://www.horsetravelbooks.com/europe2.htm#milkyway

Stories of long rides like these help me envision how glorious New
Mexico's own long distance trails could be, someday.
