Taos March 27th

Whoops--just looked at the last blog title--that should have read March 21st and not January 21st!!  We are now at 7000ft--in Taos.  the pics will show we are surrounded by mountains--but notice the fore-ground.  That grey blue shrub is all sage brush.  It sure takes over!!--nice smell though when rubbed between fingers. (1st pic)   We took a trip--on another rough dirt road--along the Rio Grand Gorge.  We're catching up with the Rio Grande River once again. Neil really isn't trying to fly!!  (2nd and 3rd pic along the gorge}  This is the bridge over the canyon--but look what we saw in the distance--mountain sheep.   the last pic show what you see when driving downtown Taos.  It has been cool here --in fact last nite they had more snow in the mountains--but none in town--thank heavens--but the days are mostly sunny.
