The dReamcatcher.: Taos, NEw MExico

With the last moments of Internet before departing on the next leg of the SOuthwestern Roadtrip, I bring you a small portion of the many photos I took during my week in Taos. At first Taos seemed a little rough around the edges compared to its highly polished neighbor, Santa Fe. But after sinking into its slower way of life & delving behind the scenes of its main tourist attractions, there is a very quirky little town with a lot to offer from Native American history to wild rivers to Americana thrift store shopping.

the not so humble dwelling/majestic adobe on the mountain side above taos. to reach it there is 1 mile of steep dirt road which made for an interesting adventure in the 2wd Pri Pri. especially in the rain.

yellow flowers coated the countryside

many old adobe churches

Taos Farmers Market: dahlia's

farmers markets are the best way to do a quick assessment of the local flavor
(sage figurines & decorated corn)

Taos Pueblo

(fast forward an hour & i am swimming in my bra & undies)

this is a picture taken off the 2nd highest (620 ft), vertigo inducing suspension bridge in the USA. let me tell ya, when you walk across you stay far from the railing.
