let the adventure begin
first stop
santa fe, new mexico
place of art, history, beauty, and mystery
sharing a road trip with my fellow life traveler
my sister
nature celebrated with art
wild mustangs up top
birds splash in a flock
burro waits patiently
half sun half shade
no need for a clock

many, many moons ago (actually in another lifetime, it’s so long since) i visited Santa Fe. and it remains engraved in my being what a wonderful, mystic, friendly, artsy place that was. Especially arresting were all the various kinds and objects of art. Unforgettable – i would take thousands of photos nowadays. enjoy!

Three years ago, we went on a trip through the southwest of the US. Santa Fe was on the plan first, but we had to skip that part due to time issues. So, through your post, I can see a bit of it. Thank you!

I’m green with envy. Decades ago, after a single trip to Santa Fe, my ex and I tried everything we could think of to facilitate a move there. Never managed it, but Santa Fe remains one of my all-time favorite best ever places.
