Dotting this “Enchanting” landscape you’ll find old ranch homes and lonely trees framing picturesque hills. Dry, golden grasses frame ice-covered ponds in the winter.
Walk the streets of New Mexico’s capital—Santa Fe. Explore the Old Santa Fe Plaza. Visit the Palace of the Governors at the right times and you’ll find Native Americans beneath its expansive veranda selling beautifully hand-crafted jewelry made of silver, turquoise, and semi-precious stones.
When one considers all there is to see and do (remember last week’s series on the Ghost Ranch?), you can easily spend a week or two to experience it all.

Beautiful!
Thank you, Karen.
Ah, New Mexico. Always wanted to retire there someday. Most likely a pipe dream – given my economic reality – but it is a good dream nonetheless. Gorgeous pictures.
