Chimney Rock

This afternoon we took a drive to Abiquiu and stopped in at Ghost Ranch. We hiked up to Chimney Rock - this is the view we had about half way up the trail.

What's That White Stuff?

Well I guess winter isn't over - last night we got snow and this is what we woke up to. We had about six inches of snow at home. That beautiful weather we had for a couple of weeks sure fooled us.

The Storm Clouds Rolled In

All day today the sky was overcast and by afternoon the storm clouds had rolled in. The Sangre de Cristos were covered with snow clouds - I thought winter was over.

A View of the Cerrillos Hills

Today I hiked in the Cerrillos Hills Historic Park. There are great views from all of the trails here. This view is from the Jane Calvin Sanchez Trail.

A Twisted Trunk

I took a walk today in the Santa Fe National Forest off of the Old Las Vegas Highway. During my walk I encountered this juniper with a very interesting trunk. I couldn't help but take a picture.

Big Bird

Today I visited Tropic of Capricorn. I was walking around the building when I entered a room and this very large parrot started squawking at me. I just love how colorful it is.

Osteospermum

We decided we wanted to start some plantings for the garden today so we took a trip to the nursery. While looking around I took lots of pictures of all the colorful flowers. Here is a picture of an 'orange symphony' and a 'lemon symphony'.
