Santa Fe

Yesterday we took a trip up to Santa Fe, NM. Santa Fe is a wonderful old city with Spanish flavor that has history and an art. Just walking around is great fun.

We visited the Georgia O’Keeffe museum. Georgia O’Keeffe was a famous and very talented 20th century American artist. She lived many years in New Mexico near Santa Fe. A photo of her and some of her works are shown below. They remind me of the paintings my sister does (my sister, Jane Lux, is a also a very talented artist).

Tomorrow we head out to Carlsbad, NM to visit Carlsbad Caverns National Park  and Guadalupe Mountains National Park.

  1. Thanks for the mention of your “very talented” sister. I loved Santa Fe – we went to Roman’s wedding there. He still lives there. Your trip continues to fascinate me. Wish I could arrange something similar. Will wait for you to do a summary of the not to be missed sites when you light somewhere.

    You are doing an excellent job on your blog – love it.
