Taos, New Mexico

Many, many years ago my dear Sister and I went on a fun road trip from Los Angeles to Taos, New Mexico.  This writing is not about that trip but you can read about it here.
This post is to share some photos taken and short blurb about Mr Doodles and I when we visited the area.

One of my very favorite stops was  El Santuario de Chimayo.    The area is stunning in a very simple way and terrific for taking photos.  Remember when you go be reverent as this is a very sacred spot.

Then we wandered over to the very famous Taos Pueblo.  Just remember when/if you go please be courteous and ask for permission to take photos because it's the right thing to do.  Actually a couple of my photos ended up in a travel magazine back then.

Now if you have read my blog before you will know there is always FOOD involved.  Yep this is one of the very best restaurant we have eaten in in a very long time. It sits on the Northern edge of Santa Fe not all that far from Taos.  Oh and surrounded by three, yep three Indian gaming establishments.  We stayed at a decent RV park for three or four days. I say decent because it was American Indian Tribal owned and they are never fancy at all  just the basics........ oh and quite reasonable.

I was wondering what had happened to you. Nice to see you're back on the road.
