After years of passing by the signs along I-25, I decided to take a Sunday drive with a good friend to visit Fort Union National Monument. The fort was established in 1851, 3 years after the Mexican American War and grew to become the largest military fort in the Southwest.

The fort is located at the junction of the Northern Mountain Branch and shorter Southern Cimarron Cutoff of the Santa Fe Trail. The Fort was an important part of American, Hispanic and Indian history. Now it’s a great place for photographers and history buffs like me! Check out the link above for more.

Spring miscellany and a sunset

Posted on May 10, 2024 by Jabo

Here are some more photos of our thrasher nestlings, who sadly were blown away during heavy Spring winds. On a happier note, we heard that putting out oranges would attract the elusive Western Tanagers and after doing so… lo and behold they showed up along with a Bullock’s Oriole. Our garden is taking shape after work on the beds and spreading out last Winter’s composting. And finally, a sunset before the rain moves in this weekend.

Now that the temperatures are getting warmer, we’re seeing the wildlife beginning to appear. Along with the bothersome prairie dogs, we have our first black-chinned hummingbird and a new batch of thrasher hatchlings in a nearby cholla cactus.

Trip to Tinkertown 4_19_24

Posted on April 21, 2024 by Jabo

For the birthday expedition, we had lunch at the San Marcos Cafe and Feedstore and then continued down 14 through Golden, NM and visited the Tinkertown Museum in Sandia Park, New Mexico. It is the creation of Ross Ward who carved the miniature people and scenery inside. There is a western town and big top circus along with a myriad of other artifacts (some are automated). One could spend days looking over all the work and the gift shop is a blast. For more, check out tinkertown.com.
