Ghost Ranch



Sandy discovered we have a wi-fi link here, so I'll do a post while it lasts. We got off in good time this morning and had a leisurely trip down, with a few errands and stops along the way.

We lunched at a family-style restaurant in Chama, and then walked around the town, which is about the size of Mancos, only 800 feet higher. We were especially taken by the Chama Local Color Gallery, which really did have lots of color in the yard (rabbit and flowers shown) and inside. Even found photos by one of the Artisans of Mancos for sale there (Barbara Stewart-Hager)!

Ghost Ranch ... even when the wind is blowing hard and the Chama River Valley seems filled with dust, there is a magic about Ghost Ranch. After supper and before the opening program this evening, we rode our bikes around the big field west of the dining hall, taking pictures along the way. Good ride (pant, pant) and beautiful views. Long day, time to call it quits. tv
