Spent the morning
sightseeing in downtown Santa Fe, a very interesting and unusual
North American city. No building appears to be above about 3 stories
high and everything in built in the adobe style. Visited the main
tourist attractions and did a little bit of shopping.

| Loretta Chapel |

| Jill with piece of DeBusk sculpture |
Then returned to
the MB dealer to get the new tire and after having that done we
returned to Santa Fe and visited Canyon Road, famous for its
galleries. We visited the William & Joseph gallery where we have
purchased our DeBusk sculptures and were fortunate enough to meet and
talk to him!

After Canyon Road we returned to downtown to look for the oldest church and house in the USA.
 |
| St. Miguel, the oldest church in the US, built in the early 1600's |
 |
| Oldest house in the US where the workers that built the church lived |
We now feel that
our trip is over and that now we have the long slog back to North
Carolina. We had considered dropping down to the Gulf coast to
return, but have decided that can be a fly drive trip sometime in the
future.
