We traveled up a quiet canyon on the road to Taos
brucekitto:
Cacti were in bloom
brucekitto:
The view from a bridge crossing the river
brucekitto:
A secluded bridge over the river in the canyon
brucekitto:
Another view down stream
brucekitto:
Further up the canyon the rocks were interesting - dark brown and "piled" up
brucekitto:
In case drivers didn't notice the pile of rocks or the cliff...
brucekitto:
And another sign way up high showing that you'll be turning around again sharply
brucekitto:
At the top of the canyon was a loooooong dirt road
brucekitto:
Glad to see such respect for government property !
brucekitto:
Might as well have painted a target on the stop sign...
brucekitto:
There is a canyon that you can see as the dark line in the distance - that will come up soon...
brucekitto:
We stopped at a roadside stop and the boys got snow cones at the "Solar Ice Cream Bus"
brucekitto:
We stopped at a bridge across the canyon that we saw from the dirt road
brucekitto:
Rio Grande Gorge Bridge
brucekitto:
Rio Grande Gorge Bridge wider shot - part of the latest Terminator movie
brucekitto:
William poses on the bridge - without much traffic
brucekitto:
A man and a bridge...
brucekitto:
The Rio Grand hundreds of feet below
brucekitto:
The canyon was surprisingly impressive - and used in Terminator's latest movie
brucekitto:
The other direction showed the Rio Grande's typical greenish color
brucekitto:
Tricia and Laura hamming it up
brucekitto:
This canyon was amazing on such a flat plateau
brucekitto:
In Taos we stopped at the Kit Carson Museum
brucekitto:
This was Kit Carson's home in Taos
brucekitto:
Timeless look
brucekitto:
On Kit Carson's front porch
brucekitto:
We then went on to the old town Taos Plaza
brucekitto:
All very "Southwestern" looking - adobe everywhere
brucekitto:
Feel the love!
