The view from our room at the Abiquiu Inn …

Nice digs …


Our very nice neigh-bors …

And it just keeps getting better (no filter needed) …

El Farolito is our favorite New Mexican restaurant (and that’s saying a lot) …

We got there before they opened, so I strolled around El Rito to take in the sights under the blue blue sky, and work up an appetite (note: click any image to get a full screen view) …





I’d show you what we had if I hadn’t been in such a hurry to dig in … so you’ll just have to take my word for it that the chili rellenos and rice with red and green chili sauce (aka Christmas) were as good as I remembered … and the sopapillas with honey are still the best in the world, bar none.
Looks like we’ll have to eat dessert-for-dinner again now that we’ve settled into the Rebecca James Room at the Mabel Dodge Luhan House in Taos …





All this and no WiFi in our room should make for a wonderful couple of days.

Cottonwoods on the Rio Chama …

Cloud shadows on the land …

The sun shining behind us …

And the Pedernal above all …

We are living a prayer …
