I loved both the jewelry and light in Old Town Albuquerque, and you can see what I bought in the candy store in the last photo.
While I finish up my only two day workshop, and post about it tomorrow, I thought I’d share my other photos so far of the environs here.
I love the grids and circles, the rivers and cloud shadows, the suburb layouts and the lone farms. It is amazing how different the colors of the east coast are from New Mexico.
I learned that saguaro is pronounced (Soo-Whar-o) and that they have to live to 100 years old before they can grow an arm.
The guy at the visitor’s center made me promise not to hike in the afternoons because it was so blasted HOT, so that left a lot of time for wandering in galleries and stuffing my face.
I hope, through these photographs, you enjoy meandering this trail with me, reveling in all this natural beauty.
We went to visit our oldest daughter, who has a wonderful new job at the California Department of Education, and doesn’t get any vacation for her first six months. We also wanted to hear her read in church since she’s now Second Reader, as well as meet her boyfriend.
Sacramento was where the Transcontinental Railroad was born, and hence this museum is here.It is a lovely museum worth going out of your way for.
While we were in California, we enjoyed spending an evening at the marina in Sausalito, across the bay from San Francisco.
The colors on the surrounding hillsides, the sea stacks and crashing Pacific ocean, the driftwood and the company, all were wonderful.
We enjoyed our first visit to the Crocker Museum of Art while we were in Sacramento. In this post you can see a sampling of the the range of interesting art and ceramics there…
All these photos out the airplane windows were taken with my (unfiltered) iPhone.
You do feel like you’ve stepped back in time here, and with modern Boston bustling beyond the walls, this place does slow you down to the pace of a previous era.
Enjoy my photos below of the Blanton Museum, the Ellsworth Kelly show, the architecture, and modern art. Visit this place when you can.
