Jemez to Mesa Verde

 This morning we bid farewell to the Jemez Springs as we headed to Mesa Verde.

We took our time to enjoy the scenery and take a few photos along the way.

While going through Aztec we came upon the Aztec Ruins National Monument. We decided to take a look, so glad we did. It is right off the main road and the ruins were great.

Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta

 Saturday night I packed everything up I would need for our mini excursion. 

Last time my sister and I headed to the Festival I ran over some glass and we had to reschedule. This time I started the car and the rodents had chewed the electrical wiring, again, so when I got to my sister’s house we transferred everything to her car for the trip.

Up at 3am, on the road by 3:30am. We encountered no traffic, until we were off the freeway and about four blocks from our destination. I believe it then took as much time to get parked as it took to drive down.

We able to park pretty close to the entrance, we were in with plenty of time to get a quick bite and find a good location to view the drone display.

Here are some pictures from my iPhone14pro, Nikon pics will take a few days, as I will be traveling.








We left the festival and headed to the Jemez Mountains, where we will spend the night. Valle Caldera is having open nights all this week. I am hoping to capture some wildlife and stars tonight.

Goat

 Woke up with a headache on Saturday, still had work to do. Matting prints, making cards then off to the gallery to drop them off. Then back to the house and relaxing the rest of the day. Sunday was more of the same without the headache. today I offer a picture of a goat watching a softball game.
