Lakeside

We’ve had the now grown young-uns coming and going, making for a vibrant and energetic time all together. There have been games and water-play, swims by day and by night to combat some of the warmer…

Taos morning
A quick note of hello and another ‘test’ of this here app. I had two posts written, posted (or so I thought) but they’ve been lost to the ether somehow. One post was about our visit to the Stony Heads (aka, Mt Rushmore) This is a place I have real mixed feelings about. Yes, it…
