A Full Day in Santa Fe

 

On Tues. Jan, George, and I went to the Santa Fe Farmer’s Market and enjoyed seeing (and buying) fresh produce.   There were also flowers, PICT4803bread, and some gift items.  It’s a very nice market and all the produce is grown by the vendors in the Santa Fe area.  There were lots of beans, fingerling potatoes, cukes, squash, some corn, big onions, etc., but no tomatoes. 

Then all of us went to lunch at Guadalupe Cafe which was fabulous.  I loved the Guacamole Chicken Enchilada, and George enjoyed his South PICT4810 Western Salad.  We walked down the street to see St. Miquel’s Church which was built in 1610 and also the Oldest House in Santa Fe.

We visited Canyon Road, an area of upscale galleries and saw some outstanding bronze statues, lovely flowers, and very attractive PICT4829 adobe buildings.  Our final destination for the day was the Georgia O’Keefe Gallery which was featuring O’Keefe’s abstract paintings.  We ended our day with George and George grilling steaks for dinner – a great ending to a great day.
