Fall Travels: Part One

 We've been back in southern New Mexico for about a month, enjoying the beautiful weather and uncrowded campgrounds at Elephant Butte Lake State Park and Caballo Lake State Park. We plan to spend most of the winter here again, depending on the weather. The pictures today are from our Fall travels in northwestern New Mexico and Colorado. We revisited some areas from earlier this year like Abiquiu Lake, Tetilla Peak Rec Area and Storrie Lake and explored some new areas like Taos, Questa, N.M. and Antonito, Colorado.

 Our time in Colorado was short because it was starting to get cold so we headed back to Questa for a few days before heading south. While we were in Questa we drove the Enchanted Circle scenic byway. I took so many pictures that day that I decided to save them for another blog post so be sure to stay tuned for Part 2.

Thanks for visiting!
