Just a little more Abiquiu...

At the time we were in and around Abiquiu I don't think we realized how much we were seeing. And to be honest, I think we just made a small dent into what there was to see, experience and enjoy. Next spring, we may just have to go back. I wonder if there is some way to prepare for the altitude discomfort. It is real; but, with scenes like below to capture your eyes and imagination one can usually find a way to deal with a little discomfort.  I started my day with a little walk around the campground and then we headed to Abiquiu.
 
 
 
 
At the bathhouse these flowers and the bee caught my eye.

There is a bend in the river here.

  2. I just looked at all of your Abiquiu posts. Great pictures. BTW, we were just there and the temperatures in Sept. were in the mid-80s ---- not bad. We were surprised to find several marked hiking trails that were not there three years ago. What a great place to just kick back and relax. We will stop there every time we drive through that part of New Mexico.
