We only had a week in Taos, and most of it was spent visiting and catching up with Jan's sister, Karen. We had a pretty drive over from Durango and arrived at the Monte Bello RV Park north of town, a small full hookup campground with exceptional views where Karen has set up temporary domicile while building a house in Taos.
And a lot of catching up was needed as we hadn't been together since a very quick lunch in Albuquerque in the spring. And we had another real pleasure as brother-in-law Tom arrived a couple days later. We haven't seen Tom in a dog's age.
We made a special trip down to Albuquerque to join Jan's other sister and husband, Nancy and CT to celebrate their mother Viv's 94th birthday with a really nice get together over lunch. And at least Jan and I learned it is a long, long way from Taos:) But it gave us all time to visit some more on the ride.
We had some great lunches and dinners all together and spent some time getting a tour of the under construction house.
The short visit culminated in a fantastic horse ride for Jan, Karen, and Tom, no, I don't do horses, about 20 miles into the mountains north of town. They had a wonderful time, but I think some butts were getting a little sore near the end:)
Jan and I had a nice drive down to Santa Fe to the Santa Fe Skies RV Park, our favorite campground in the area. We have been coming here since they opened almost 20 years ago. It is a very nice full service park, with a nice walking path and lots of art throughout the park. Tomorrow Karen and Tom will join us here, and then we will go meet Nancy and CT for lunch at Santa Fe Bite, home of the very BEST green chili cheeseburgers in the world!!
So just a quick post to catch up.
