Sedona, Arizona

Have lost my camera cable, so no pics today from my trip to Sedona. Hit Cerillos, Madrid, Sandia Peak, and took a peek at Acoma Pueblo, though I was too late for the tour. Made for a long day to Sedona but I think it will have been worth it when I wake up here tomorrow morning and then promptly go shopping for a camera cable.

Santa Fe -- Canyon Road

Pretty clearly a philistine behind the lens. I am seeing a theme here though -- relaxation.

Chimayo

Santa Fe, NM

Had dinner tonight at Tomasita's. A Christmas enchilada with posole and sopaipillas. Washed down with a Swirl, which had exactly that effect on my head.

Art/Demolition

I thought at first this was art. On closer inspection I realized it was an actual demolition. Goes to state of mind.

South Congress Cafe. Amazing tortilla soup, fajitas, and a Rita.

Brass Band Wedding Party Brigade

I let myself get swept up in a passing parade Saturday night -- the music, especially the trumpet, was great. People dressed to the nines. I followed them many blocks until it all convened in front of a fancy hotel. The black parasols popping up and down to the music, everyone young, beautiful, and silly. Then they poured into the hotel and poof -- gone.
