Positive Energy Adventure – Colorado/New Mexico – 8/2011 – Day 6


We got a late start today…left the rental at 9:45am…had breakfast in Santa Fe at the Zia Diner…nice place…good food!  We parked in the free public parking lot situated about 4 blocks away from the “plaza”.  The native Indians sell their jewelry/pottery under the portal of the Palace of the Governors Museum.  Since I’ve adopted the mind-set of “Collect Experiences…Not Things”, I was a good girl and only bought a shirt and some essential oil lotion on the trip!

This is the oldest house in Santa Fe…we took about 5 minutes and walked through it.

I went into this Cathedral…

There are some outdoor statutes and galleries around the plaza area…

This is the work of Bill Worrell…

a local artist that my traveling companion, Kathy, is friends with.  They are his signature “Shamans”!

We were invited to John Farnsworth’s house/studio.  We met online through my blog, which I think is pretty cool!  He’s also a local artist, who has a great spirit and personality!  His home was located only about 5 minutes from where we were staying.

That evening we went dancing at La Fonda…I wasn’t feeling great…probably the drinks in Durango the night before…and the altitude!

  1. Hi, you suggested I check out your blog and I did. I was glad to see your series of blogs about your trip through Colorado and New Mexico as I will be taking a trip there later this month. We’ll be driving down from Washington, going first through Dinosaur NM, then down to the Silverton area, over to Taos, then spending 3 days in Sante Fe, and back up through northwestern New Mexico and eastern Utah. It’s great seeing some of the places I’ll be going on your blog. Thanks for sharing.
