Early morning in October. Patricia took a picture of it.
By coincidence, I was taking a picture of the same sunrise at almost the same time while I was on a walk.
Ann and Max visited us from Arizona and we went to the Santa Fe Botanical Garden.
In addition to the plant life, the garden has sculptures along the trails.
Even in October there were still colorful flowers.

We were able to arrange a tour of the Wells Petroglyph Preserve. At first, the sky was threatening.
A sample of the kind of petroglyphs left here over the pas 1200 years or so.
Our docent, Sandy, was full of information.
On the way back to Santa Fe from the WPP, we made a stop at the Santuario de Chimayo.

In late October we drove to Madrid (the one close to us, not the one in Spain) for a meal and to see the fall colors.
