Gone away.....

We'll be gone and blogless for several days. We're heading to Santa Fe for our annual fall get away in that region. It's about time.

I imagine we'll hit some of the galleries Friday afternoon including one of my favorites the Andrew Smith Gallery. Andrew has one of the premier photographic galleries in the country, I'm in awe everytime we browse there. And by chance, one of their chief buyers will be at our museum in Midland next week to give a lecture on buying photographic images. I wish I could afford an Ansel Adams.

Saturday we are heading down the road to Galisteo home of 270 friendly souls including our friend, noted artist Woody Gwyn. Woody is an affable artiste and we look forward to touring his historic home and studio, the Ortiz Hacienda, which was built in 1703.

On Sunday Julie has arranged another railroad treat for us...a trip on the scenic Cumbres&Toltec Railroad near Chama N.M. Photo opportunities abound on this trip and the fall foliage, cool crisp atmosphere and mountain scenery should make my life a busy one processing images upon our return. See you on Tuesday, in the meantime talk amongst yourselves.
