It's time to head south so back in the car. Our destination was Santa Fe for the night so we could attend a mountain man trade fair. Since we've been out here I've been reading about these guys and thinking about putting a costume together. The trade fair was smaller than expected but there was some really neat stuff. Betsy walked around The Plaza which has to be one of the best people watching venues in all of the U.S.
From Santa Fe we put the pedal to the metal and drove straight home. We found that without the trailer we could cover more territory, but the motels really drove the cost up. Lesson learned--slower is cheaper.
The pictures are of some of the animals we saw along the way. I always look for buffalo wherever we travel and found these guys in NM. Seeing the bull elk was a fantastic sight. And the horses were just outside Como, CO.
Notice the red Indian Paintbrush in the foreground and the mountains in the back. Thanks to John and Elaine & Kay and Ernie for all their hospitality. Next trip is in a couple of weeks to Utah where Betsy will take 3 days of pastel instruction. Stay tuned.
