The drive from Yeso to Angel Fire included a ferocious rain storm between Clines Corners and Santa Fe. Wind, lightening and hard rain. We made it fine, though.
The house is beautiful. The driveway is steep and Gene had a devil of a time getting the trailer parked. We did not have the correct combination to get in, but a phone call took care of that.
The first morning it was 43 degrees F. Brrr. We expected it though and were better prepared than in Colorado last trip. It got up to about 74 degrees yesterday. Very pleasant.
I sketched in the big coffee table book. I brought it in a computer case so I can put some different things in it. I sketch our "stuff" over and over. New to us stuff in this house.

If you haven't ever looked at the Hunts you should. It is fun to see the different takes on the same items from around the world and different techniques. You may be inspired to sketch from life.
Number 3, hanging - this wooden plaque of Texas
Number 4, flower - an artificial sunflower in a pot in the corner of the living room
I left my point and shoot camera at home -- plugged in and charging. I took these with my iPad. Will have to use that and my phone.

The interior of the house is fabulous...love the wall of windows. Your sketch of the basket shows it's texture so well. Glad you made it safely through the storms. Rides like that are such "white knucklers."
Joan, same style windows at the other end of the living room. A ski home. It was good to stop and get out of the car after the rain! Beautiful day today.
that looks like a gorgeous house! :D
Jennifer Rose, the house is great. Lots of comfort. Up pretty high on steep hills so a bit hard for Gene on his trike. :)
