Fall colors are very muted this year, we’re in a drought so the trees are mostly dark rust colored.

Took the van to run errands today, we are LOVING her! ❤️ We ordered some window rain guards and priced out a hitch. I think we’re going to have a blast traveling in her.

Bought a van to turn into a steel tent, we really want to roam further afield and this will help make that possible.

A couple of years ago some friends took us out where normal cars dare not tread, a tiny place in New Mexico called Chiz, the nickname of Cochise and where he sheltered when pursued. This simple church sits there against a beautiful sky.

Looking at the sky is something I do all the time, from my travels I can say, New Mexico has the finest skies. So clear, so deeply blue. ❤️
