I spent Labor Day weekend in Sante Fe for the joyous union of my cousin Emily in marriage<\/a>. In between the three official parties, we did the tourist thing and I took some pictures. Here are a few of my favorites.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Chimayo crosses.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We stopped to take a picture of that house you can see in the background, but I actually like this aster close up better.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you know me, you know I am not religious, however, there was no shortage of religious paraphernalia on our stops, so get used to it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Obligatory Southwest cactus shot<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Behind this sign, there was a man selling various chili powers. He made me smell all of them, but tricked my dad into trying some. Poor John said he wanted a beer, but we were in god’s country, so there was none to be found.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Speaking of god, this is Chimayo, home of Holy Dirt (actually just dirt in a hole that is supposed to heal the sick etc.) I assume they bought it at Home Depot.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Another angle on Chimayo temple<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shade was a good find, but overall, the sunny weather was very pleasant for a few days.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We ended up at some weird outdoor gallery full of $20,000 sculptures. This giraffe was pretty cool.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On the way back to Albuquerque, we stopped at a petting zoo. The goats liked me (it may have been the $2 worth of food, though)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jared is NOT boozing in this photo. That is soda.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Old town Sante Fe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There was surprisingly little graffiti on all the blank taupe canvases of Sante Fe. However, these people were clearly starting a “totally rad revolution.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jesus is watching.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kicking Ass Ranch<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Lake Santa Cruz<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This staircase at the Lorette chapel is a marvel or engineering and believed to be built by St. Joseph himself. We paid $3 each to look at it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cerillos, NM.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This guy came to Chimayo to get healed. Looks like it didn’t work.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hotel roses.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Self portrait.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Steeple.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Vigil store.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Old town theater.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bummer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
