2ND ANNIVERSARY TRIP TO TAOS

This past weekend we celebrated two years of marriage! For this reason (and to get out of the cold) we went to Taos, NM. We left on Friday afternoon and went to the Sagebrush Inn. We had a nice dinner, danced to music by the Rifters, woke up and had a great breakfast before walking around the historic downtown Taos Plaza. We also went to St. Francis of Asis Church. This is supposedly the most painted church in the USA. It was built in the late 18th century, and took over forty year to build. The walls are over five feet thick, and you can see the straw sticking through the adobe. Red joined us on this trip, and was happy when we stopped at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory to get him a "Barker's Dozen" of white chocolate dipped Milk Bones. We didn't get a ton of pics, but here are a few . . .

Red established quickly he & Damon get the bed - and gives me a 'don't even think about trying to share' look. Hmmm, maybe we should have left him home . . .






You can see the straw in this picture.
