Highlights of New Mexico

Our travel through New Mexico allowed us to sample the diverse
culture, food, weather and landscape of this beautiful state. It was
a first time visit for both Tom and me.
We enjoyed visiting the Taos pueblo and the Aztec ruins. We visited
the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center and Albuquerque Museum of Art and
Museum. We did some shopping in Santa Fe and Taos and enjoyed meeting
artists of many different types. Isn't it amazing the large
variations in techniques and perspective that people use to depict the
world around them?
Some of you have already noted that we seem to be eating our way
across the USA. And it is true that we have loved Southwestern food.
When we go out we mostly go for lunch. Rest assured, I am cooking.
It probably isn't what you would call camp food -- panfried tilapia
with grilled veggies, beef stew and spaghetti are some of my recent
offerings.
We have left New Mexico for destination Durango. Once again, we've
traded a tent site for a cabin as the temperatures are expected to
drop into the low 30's or even colder.
Adios for now, amigos!
