We bought these prints at the Spanish Market in Albuquerque a couple of weeks ago. Sal made the barn wood frames. We loved the colors and the feel of New Mexico.

We went to Bill and Pam's for dinner last night. This is the view from their deck. Sitting on the boat dock having a few beers with friends--it doesn't get much better. Pam fixed a great Chinese salad and we bowled and golfed with the Wii.

On our way to Albuquerque we spent the night in Marfa. Between Marfa and I-10 we came across the Prada store--an art installation. Visitors had left stones along the ledge on the side of the building--sort of like those left at roadside memorials (descansos). Some had also left behind shoes as a remembrence.

Sal and Janet will use this blog to post pictures and keep family updated as to what we are doing.
