Ojo Caliente

Steam Room
Wednesday we went to a spa in Ojo Caliente where there are several hot springs.  There was an Iron Spring, a Soda Spring, and an Arsenic Spring.  There was also a big pool to swim in and a mud pool.  I didn't go in the mud pool but Spenser and Deborah did.  This is a picture of Deborah in the Steam Room.  We also went in the Sauna where it was 160°.  We were there from 6PM until they closed at 10PM and had a really good time.

Taos, New Mexico

My grandson's blog, Ephimerides, has inspired me to start posting again.

At the end of July we set out for Taos, New Mexico.  It's been really hot in Austin for a long time and we decided to go someplace cooler.  Taos is very cool, especially in the evening.  You can see some of the pictures here.  I wasn't a very long drive.  We stopped in Fort Stockton, Texas overnight, and again in Cloudcroft, New Mexico.  It was a good trip.
