New Year 2020

We lived in Moose for exactly one year traveling.  Once we arrived in Michigan it seemed harder to live on the road and visit with friends and family.  We tried a couple different options and didn't end up with an acceptable solution.  In October 2019 we closed on a home with access to Lake Huron, 2 hours from our children/grand kids and friends.  We had been looking in this particular area for awhile knowing we had plans of boating the Great Lakes and this place became available, we love it.

We got back on the road January 22 heading Southwest as fast as we could.  We traveled 1,765 miles in four days to get into New Mexico, whew, what a rush to get past those snow and ice storms.  It was great hooking up with a couple of friends, Jane and Pat from Michigan, we enjoyed stopping to have lunch with you in St Louis.  Two days later we met with their daughter Karen who just moved to Clovis NM for lunch.  That was so cool that our paths were crossing at the same time on the road and just as she moved to New Mexico.

From Clovis we headed north to Tijeras NM to hole up for 4 days and take some trips up to Santa Fe.  First we visited Meow Wolf.  Next we visited Canyon Road home to 80 of the 240 galleries in the Santa Fe area.  After 2 full days, we made it to about 10 galleries, they were so amazing we spent so much time in each one.  Definitely we will return to Santa Fe, visit more galleries, museums and Georgia O'Keeffe museum and her studio/home.

It's a very visual experience and even better with 3D glasses.

Meow Wold is weird, like nothing you've ever experienced, you just have to do this for yourself.




The architecture is Southwest all over Santa Fe this is a gallery front on Canyon Rd.


There are galleries on both sides of Canyon Road and courts leading to other galleries.  
What a beautiful road with so much to see.
