Santa Fe Birthday

We’re in Santa Fe this week; in part to celebrate our birthdays. It’s the third time Maura and I have been here together. We both love it here! It’s very different from where we live; a much more stark beauty. The culture, food, and environment - it’s such a cool place. The Museum of International Folk Art is an amazing, magical collection of, well, folk art. The last time we were here, we stayed at a B and B near Sun Mountain - each day I would hike a little further up to the top, then chicken out, mostly because I knew I’d have to hike back down. The last day we were here I made it to the top, which was just amazing - great views of Santa Fe, the sunrise, everything. We’re staying in the same place for this visit and I don’t plan to wait until the last day to make it to the top this time. I didn’t go up this morning, but I’m still acclimating to the thinner air here. I did take some pictures on my hike this morning, it’s just so pretty here!
