Taos!

We had a great couple of days in Taos, New Mexico. The daytime weather was wonderful, but the nights dropped into the high 20’s – low 30’s… brrr…

We especially enjoyed the Taos Pueblo. This has been continuously inhabited for 1000 years. Every door is a separate dwelling and each dwelling is handed down from generation to generation. Each dwelling owner is responsible for keeping up their portion of the pueblo. The Indians speak a native language called Tiwa that is unwritten and is passed down orally. Entry fee is $10 per adult plus $5 if you have a camera and want to take pictures! I had taken about 3 pictures when the batteries in my camera died. Ugh. Les had to buy some at one of the gift shops in the Pueblo. He still won’t tell me what he paid for 4 AA batteries!

We left Taos and headed south to Socorro, New Mexico to meet up with Doug and Roberta for an evening. (They were headed to Texas.)

Beautiful windows in the church. They wouldn't allow any pictures to be taken inside the church.

I loved the different color doors!

We’re starting to get white-line fever, so we pretty much bee-lined it across Arizona to Nevada, where we spent one night in Laughlin and are now in Las Vegas for a couple of days.
