Well, it won’t be long now…
You’re looking at the lower slopes of Taos Mountain as seen from our house just south of town at around 8:00 a.m. this morning. I think that’s freezing fog, but later when the clouds lifted, you could see patches of snow for a while. I take a lot of pictures [...]

Sometimes I want to get out into the boonies real bad, but there isn’t time to make it a big project. That’s when the forest roads beckon. I took one today after lunch and followed the Rio Grande del Rancho — which flows [...]

I can almost feel it. I know it’s right underneath my nose.
