This Thanksgiving, I am thankful for those moments when I realize that hey…there’s really no set script for the way I have to do my adult life! So I decide to go to New Mexico. And my dad (convinced partly by the fact that he lived here in 1977, and hasn’t been back since; partly by the Dove chocolate he ate while mulling over the idea, whose wrapper blessedly said “Book the flight”) agrees to come with me for a few days. On the flight over it occurred to me that I am now exactly the same age, to the month, as he was when he had me. This week we have: 🌈 Explored cliff dwellings where the Ancestral Pueblo people lived from the 1200s-1400s; 🌈 Ridden horses at @brokensaddleridingco in Cerrillos (Dad’s text to the family about the experience in the comments below); 🌈 Basked in his favorite scent - a piñon pine fire - at our awesome B&B in Santa Fe; 🌈 Climbed into a washing machine (and other portals to the multiverse) and slid into another world at @meowwolfsantafe; 🌈 Hiked to Sandia Crest in the Cibola National Forest, stopping along the way so Dad could admire every different type of rock, petrified tree, and volcanic remnant; and listened to hours of mariachi music on the drives through the rolling desert landscape. Now Dad’s headed back East and I’m on to Taos, full of gratitude and a few sore muscles. #brokensaddleridingcompany #santafemotelandinn @santafemotel #sandiamountains #sandiacrest #cibolanationalforest #bandeliernationalmonument #frijolescanyon #meowwolfsantafe #thanksgiving2021 #travelswithpop #wildwest

Boylan Heights is one of the coolest neighborhoods in Raleigh - populated by quirky craftsman homes, wildflowers, the occasional coyote, and some of my favorite people. Two weeks from today I’ll be participating in its annual holiday handmade market, the Boylan Art Walk. Details to come but save the date to stop by on Sunday, December 5, 12-5pm!
