Santa Fe is full of art galleries, but Canyon Road is kind of the official art district. It's a narrow winding road, lined with galleries, shops and restaurants. We love walking up and down it, in every season.
Love these dancing sheep! |
RV Painter loves the dancing sheep too -a little too much, if you ask me! |
Cool Bronze |
Funky Santa Fe style |
A little side street off Canyon Road |
Guess we better buy folk art ... |
We bought a Happy Rug like the red one - it will go in the RV |
The only reason this restaurant is worth mentioning is that actress Kate Walsh ate there the same day we did |
The DEVIL made me do it!!! :>)
ReplyDeleteDancing sheep that's so cool. It looks like a really great place to live. I've nominated you for the versatile blogger award if you want it :)
ReplyDeleteYou're so sweet! I'll check it out xo
DeleteThose sheep are FINE! I love them. Maybe not too much, though. Santa Fe is a place I would like to visit. Next time.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great town - a small walking city, beautiful architecture, no tall buildings, a Plaza (that's another post) and great food.
DeleteI'm sure we will manage it sometime!
ReplyDeleteI loved my brief one day visit to Santa Fe! I hope to explore more of New Mexico some day.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty state, and Santa Fe is really nice.
DeleteI love the sheep! Great pics!
ReplyDeleteARen't they fun??
DeleteWhoever had the vision to create dancing sheep? I love them.
ReplyDeleteI know - I just love the mind that created them too ;D
Deletewhat a terrific district.
ReplyDeleteIt's great fun.
DeleteWhat wonderful sculpture! Love those dancing sheep and lol and RV Painter being so handsy. :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't he naughty???

DeleteNow That's My kind of town. I would love living there!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Joanne
It's a great place to live, actually!
DeleteHaha I love that picture of your husband with the dancing sheep! You've really made me want to go to Santa Fe now, it looks like such a fun place :)

It's a great place Megan - I have been very happy here.
DeleteThat first one looks like me and a couple of friends....
ReplyDeleteYou have cute friends :D
DeleteSanta Fe is so lovely. What a treat to have been able to enjoy it while waiting for your RV. Thanks for the tour, great pictures.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great place, and Canyon Road is just one part of it!
DeleteHi Melissa .. Canyon Road looks fun - and I love the fact the street is narrow and winds around .. great red rug - the RV will be amazing ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteWe love our Happy Rug!
DeleteThere are some fabulous sculptures there. I'm not surprised you love it.
ReplyDeleteGreat town for art!
DeleteI'm sure Santa Fe will miss you, too!
ReplyDeleteThey'll never get over it! :D
DeleteDear Melissa, . . . those sheep are a hoot! They make me laugh just looking at them jig.
ReplyDeleteI noted that my comment was deleted from your Tuesday post. Did I saw something unacceptable? I surely hope not. If I did, I apologize.
Peace.
Really? No - I don't know why that would have happened! I must have hit something wrong. I was having trouble with my replies to comments the other day!
DeleteWhat an interesting place. I like the idea of taking the rug with you on your travels as a momento.
ReplyDeleteWe got the rug a while back and it turns out to be just the right thing (I think ) for the RV.
DeleteI want to go there! I've been to Santa Fe, and thought I'd seen the best of it. Obviously not. Next time I will find Canyon Road. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou must be getting excited about your trip now.
Happy Weekend!
Carol, I wish we could go tomorrow - waiting is painful!
DeleteI would enjoy Santa Fe. I love all the art!
ReplyDeleteTeresa
If you love art, you'd love Santa Fe, for sure!
DeleteI think you are very brave to leave this wonderful place. What I would miss is the wind, the desert breeze. I was there in 1969 and I still remember that soft wind. Thank you so much for your kind comment on my post.
ReplyDeleteHi Inger - it's a wonderful town and the weather is generally gorgeous. The gentle winds though, in spring are not so gentle and are really annoying! But they settle down, and I don't know of any place that has nicer summer weather.
DeleteIt is just how I have pictured it in my mind. You make me what to go there! Love the sheep.
ReplyDeleteI'll be posting more pictures from around town. It's a terrific place - to visit or to live.
DeleteThanks for sharing all the cool pictures. Now I can say I've seen dancing sheep, LOL.
ReplyDeleteYes, you've seen it all now :D
DeleteI just found your comment from December in my spam folder! errrrr....... Anyway, thanks for the visit to my blog. I have fond memories of my trip to Santa Fe and Canyon Road. Enjoy your journey!
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never, they say!
DeleteYou will be so missed Melissa! I am so happy we got to know each other a bit! Sending you and Dick so much love! Happy trails on your journey!

Thank you Karuna, and thank you for the chant! Linda did a special chant for me at the end of class today too and it felt so wonderful and powerful.
