A New Mexico Alphabet (I to M)

I -- I is for Ice Caves.  Not only do parts of New Mexico get ice and snow but Grants is home to her very own ice caves near the historic El Morro and rugged lava flows of El Mapais.
J -- J is for Jack Rabbits.  While there is no such thing as a Jackalope (shh, don't tell anyone I said that), jack rabbits in this part of the world are large enough to kill -- if you are easily scared to death :0).
K -- K is for Kid. Billy the Kid met his untimely demise here in our fair state.
L -- L is for the Loretta Chapel.  This beautiful little church, and it's mysterious or miraculous circular staircase, is found in downtown Santa Fe.  
M -- M is for Matanza.  A matanza is a traditional Spanish butchering party where the meat is cooked slowly in a pit to keep in all the savory juices.
