Dianne and I borrowed maxes car and drove up into the mountains take a hike today. It was beautifully cool up in the mountains. We decided to go on the big Tesuque trail. It was a beautiful up-and-down walk through a mostly descending canyon. There was tons of wildflowers. We had a great picnic lunch and then got back just as it started to hell like crazy. But then switch to an amazing rain storm which bright flash flooding. It was water pouring Pouring over the Mountain Road and washing giant rocks in. We were very glad to have four-wheel-drive vehicle.
I’m not sure I already said that in this blog… But we had a real Nixa Airbnb. We were to have stayed in a house only three minutes walk from Maxis… When we got here we found that the only entrance to that house was through an alley which had three vicious pitbull’s on In chains I belong to a neighbor.. The landowner. Unfortunately the landowner good nap would not control the dogs it was impossible to actually get to the house we are renting. Thankfully Airbnb gave us our money back… But there were no other rentals available in the whole town. That’s how many people are traveling!
Anyway we were able to find A short term rental for most of the week to begin on Monday. It is a beautiful place about 3 miles from Maxis.… I was out in the hills of suburban santafe. Our little house had a nice collection of geckos
Gosh… This is the longest I have not logged in… I don’t know… Maybe forever.… Nothings wrong… I’m deeply affected by Scott’s passing and enjoying being out here with Diane and Max. So let’s just chalk it up to distraction.
Monday Dianne and I just worked around Max’s house. I spent most of the time re-organizing Max and Becky shop… Which gives me great motivation to do the same for my own. Nothing very picture worthy.… We did take a nice late walk where Max and Becky’s dog Violet has a beautiful glow in the dark purple Light up collar. When she goes to the park she runs like crazy and it looks like this
Laid-back day here in Santa Fe with Max. We got off to a slow start . We headed downtown to see folk art festival… When we got there it was actually pretty small but still really beautiful stuff. Max took us on a really nice tour of downtown Santa Fe which is always fun. It was great just hanging out together. We loved the art there… Some of it was public art and some of it was in galleries….
My favorite was Seret and Sons A huge collection of carpet, furniture, architectural doodads brought together from all parts of the world. It was really breathtaking… Unfortunately no pictures inside the place but I got these outside
We got takeout burritos and went back and eight and Max Becky’s yard that super nice and peaceful
The three of us did projects around the house all day. Around 730 Diane and I took off for a walk. The Santa Fe sky never ceases to amaze me. Check out the sun here. I don’t know if that’s dust or smoke or whatever but it’s beautiful
Tomorrow… We’re getting in early start on some more projects around the house. It’s so nice being here.
