Casa Nevada


Roy and Suzanne at Santuaro de Chimayo sharing their chili purchases.


This is what Roy wants to have for his headstone=)


This is the Cumbres and Toltec Steam train, America's highest narrow gauge railroad. It was cold at the top!


The Aspen changing color.

United States and Colorado flags.


The Snows at the Casa Nevada.

October 10-14-Roy was worn out from his hospital experience so it was time for a getaway. I planned a trip to New Mexico to visit the Snows. We headed out and on the way to Globe he said, 'The only place I can think of we would be going, headed this way, is Bob and Suzanne's house.' What a bright boy. We watched the Diamonbacks lose miserably, had fun talking, exploring Taos, and riding the steam train from Chama, NM to Osier, Colorado. Oh, I forgot to mention eating Bob's gourmet cooking. When we went into Chama Suzanne had Bob stop at the little quilt shop, as we were peeking through the windows the owner opened the door and invited us in. Lynn Graeves was the owner of the shop and she does classes all over the place, makes patterns, etc. and has an internet business. It was fun to be in her shop and hear her 'mile a minute' instruction about crazy quilts and other construction techniques. Sometimes I understood what she was saying and sometimes not. It was a perfect trip because we had great company (or the great company had us) and the leaves were changing on the Aspen. Roy loved all the chili that flowed and we brought some home. We learned about beekeeping from Bob and brought some 'Bob's Bees' honey home to enjoy.
