Funny little green men from Mars ....
The oldest continuously occupied (1610) public building in the USA is what is now known as The Palace of the Governors. The lovely adobe building has been occupied under three flags, Spanish, Mexican and American. Today the adobe walls were being painted so, as you can see, some of it was taped off. Native American Artists sell their own handicrafts here, jewelry, rugs, musical instruments, dream-catchers and more.
This old car passed as I was taking the shot .... it was perfect timing.
We had the best meal of the trip at La Fonda, a beautiful old hotel in downtown Santa Fe.

We walked around the Plaza and to the Library where Barbara volunteers but she was at lunch so we missed her. I did speak with Ken. Santa Fe was the perfect end to Bev's journey on the Native portion of the Southwest. We are on our way to Texas and hope to be home in two and a half days (Wednesday evening). Tonight we are staying in Roswell where the UFO mystery deepens ....

We made it back to the hotel safely but were watched by a little green man at Applebee's. We would not be the first in the queue at Alien Hqtrs- the couple behind us at dinner spent their time making farm animal noises. It was very strange and we were doubled up with laughter. At first Bev thought the were cattle in the parking lot ......
