Santa Fe Trip Winter Solstice 2000

(Click on the small pictures to see a larger version.)

Visual Arts Center When it started to snow we couldn't resist exploring in our new PT Cruiser and found this wonderful group of red buildings at the College of Santa Fe.		Red Window This window in the red wall is at the back of the Visual Arts Center.


Three Things At the College of Santa Fe which are probably angels.		Courtyard The Arts Center courtyard looking surreal in the snow.


Blue Doorway The red walls were striking against the dead white sky behind glowing weeds in the snow. We will return to investigate the blue doorway.		Bug My newest impulse buy which fits so perfectly in the corner by my desk and gives me another outlet for my pyromaniac tendencies.


Stove We followed the trail of Billy the Kid and were lucky to have Lincoln almost to ourselves. Everything inside the museum at the old Lincoln County Courthouse seemed to glow with a strange blue light.		Billy the Kid Life-sized enlargement of a tiny Daguerreotype of Billy the Kid in the museum. Since Daguerreotypes are reversed (like negatives) Billy was mistakenly dubbed "The Left-Handed Gun." (The Daguerre website explains how Daguerreotypes were made.)


Uranium Cafe Not the place for a snack if you are in a hurry, but an interesting stop full of old uranium miners on Route 66 in Grants, New Mexico.		Grants Railroad Bridge The cat tails have taken over this riverbed right outside the Uranium cafe.
