Now I lay me down to sleep...

We have been here for a week!

It was time to move around a little,

so we made a day trip tp Santa Fe.

It is about a two hour drive from here

and we make a big loop,

driving south to Las Vegas,

west through Glorietta

and into Santa Fe.

Our return trip takes us north

out of Santa Fe (by lots of casinos),

through Espanola,

east by way of Tres Ritos

and north from Mora

enjoying the beautiful mountain terrain

that we love.

While in Santa Fe,

we ate lunch at Cafe Castro,

shopped for a cast iron chimenea

(an impossible find even at Jackalope),

took care of some banking business,

picked up groceries at Sam's

and wine at Trader Joe's.

Back home, groceries unloaded,

we headed to the front deck,

to watch the sun set

and the humming birds feed.

"Now I lay me down to sleep.

I pray thee Lord my soul to keep.

Be thou with me through the night

And wake me with the morning light."

                   Amen
