I had some free time on my 2nd morning in Santa Fe before meeting up with my aunt, and I wanted to get out and just enjoy the local scenery. I remembered from previous trips that there’s some great views of the moutains from the Museum Hill area, so I drove up there. I was … Read more
I’m heading out to Santa Fe to take care of some family business, and in preparation of doing so, have been looking back at some old pictures from previous trips there.
