Santa Fe Trip Winter Solstice 2003 (Click on the small pictures to see a larger version.) |
The Galaxy DinerAs usual, a stop at the Galaxy Diner in Flagstaff is one of the highlights of the drive east. |
The GalaxyI am transfixed by the lights of The Galaxy after eleven hours on the road. |
|
Galaxy StarThe Galaxy Diner may have had this ceiling with blue neon stars for years, but this is the first time we noticed it. |
Artesanos BandIt would be a pity to break up the tin band for sale at Artesanos. |
|
SunsetThere wasn’t much snow in town, but the sunsets were beautiful behind our adobe wall. |
Stan in the SunsetStan soaks up a bit of the sunset on the front porch. |
|
Me in the SunsetHere I am taking a picture of Stan taking a picture of me taking a picture of … |
Door at Paul’sThis is the lower half of the door to Paul’s restaurant at 72 West Marcy. |
|
Aspen in the SnowThere was plenty of snow in the mountains, perfect for snowshoing at Big Tesuque. |
Aspens at Big TesuqueThough sometimes it was more like a jungle than a forest. |
|
Aspen EyeIt was probably an after-effect of our Eygptian-style Solstice card, but the old aspen limb scars really looked like eyes! |
Winged UraeusThis winged cobra design was adapted from an illustration in a book on Egyptian art we stumbled across while searching for the Hippopotamus goddess. |
|
Calling EmilyWe couldn’t resist calling Emily from 10,000 feet with our new cell phone. |
AspensWe’ve probably photographed these aspens many times, but we think you can maybe see Pedernal on the horizon in this view. |
|
Sage BreadIf anyone ahead of you in line is ordering coffee, you have plenty of time to watch the bakers loading and unloading the oven in Sage Bakery. |
Bug DoorsWe had to buy a new saw to go with the new saw blade and borrow some fancy edge trimming thingies from Lynn, but two of the closet doors are finally hung in place! |
|
San Francisco Street Bar & GrillWe have been missing our favorite spot for a pint of local beer ever since they closed a few years ago and were overjoyed to see the familiar sign hanging again. |
Santa Fe Pale AleThe inside is even nicer than the old place, and Santa Fe Pale Ale is back on tap! |
