Santa Fe continued

It's early Monday morning, Labor Day. Yesterday we spent most of the day wandering through the galleries on Canyon Road. Of most interest were some wind driven sculptures made from copper and stainless steel. One had two "windmills" turning, each in the opposite direction of the other which gave it a kaleidoscope effect when the wind blew. Very cool! But, too cool for $1700.

We had lunch at El Farol. Sandwich and salad. The salad had a really good cheese...something that started with "iz." I'll have to try and find it a Central Market.

Saw some amazing bronzes of Native Americans. One of a woman with the wind blowing a blanket behind her like a cape. I got pictures. Time permitting I will post them here.

We rested part of the afternoon. Had dinner at Il Vecino an Italian place near the B&B. Afterwards we walked up to the Plaza in the rain. Walked the labyrinth in front of the Basilica of Guadalupe. Then went to Evangeline's to listen to some blues...a pretty good live band was playing.
