New Scavenger Hunt 416 Sketches and New Mexico Photos

Scavenger Hunt 416 is underway. http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1385647  I sketched in the living room with my feet up.  You can see that Gene had his feet up as well.  I sketched in the travel sketchbook with the Micron 01.

Number 1, table - Gene's portable table that folds about any way you want it!
Number 2, foot - Gene's feet.  Mine would have been freezing with no covers on.  It is chilly this morning.

Number 3, bag - a couple on the bench
Number 4, box - a small box that held earrings I bought in Grants

We had a couple of warm days. I could wear short sleeves!  We went to Taos to do a bit of shopping, meet Bag Blog's, Lou's, grandkids (the two boys we hadn't met)  Super to see them. 

We are going to try to get together to paint.  Guess I should look in my bin and see what I brought to paint with!

 From Taos going toward the ski area.

 A fixer upper.  We probably couldn't even afford the lot!

 Looking off the Rim down to the valley.

 Shadows on the way out of Taos.


 Start of the sunset on the way back to Angel Fire.

 Beautiful clouds.


 Sunset getting better, near Angel Fire.

 We should have stopped but it changed so fast.

I couldn't decide which was better, so you get both on the last two.  This one is across the golf course.

Jennifer Rose, I don't like to wear socks to bed but do sometimes. Gene's sister taught me to warm them in the microwave for 45 seconds! I hope you are feeling better. I moaned and groaned over my cut lip, nothing compared to you. Hugs.....

pain can be a very subjective thing tho, and cuts on lips hurt! using the microwave is a good trick :)

Glad to pass on the microwave hint, Jennifer Rose.
