Dazzled by the Visions

A leaf-embellished metal grate guards some statues, photos of people for whom prayers have been requested, and one man.

Andy’s fiesta

Even though Andy’s claims to have just about anything you could need (Cocktails! Curios! Restaurant! Meeting Rooms! Drive-up Window!), I think the availability of all of those things is exaggerated. Which is, of course, my favorite thing about it.

Start of the spring thaw

We were there during that time of year when spring and winter overlap – new snow was falling in the mountains but melting at the lower elevations, already causing the streams to run with clear, cold water.

Sky Cross

I’ve been the Chimayó many times, and expect to see crosses everywhere.

Just not in the sky….
