I got to see the Foucault Pendulum knock over a wooden time piece! Finally, I was in the right place at the right time. (The right place is the Houston Museum of Natural Science.)

This is the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge in northern New Mexico. I was there early on a Sunday morning (about 5:30 a.m.) to wait for sunrise. On the high desert it is cool in the mornings, in the low 50s. I could hear the rush of the river below as I stood alone on the edge of the gorge. It was just me, the river, and the beautiful clouds at dawn.

Horse by Georgia O’Keeffe
The one place I wanted to see in Santa Fe was the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. I had my camera with me (of course!) and sometimes you just get lucky: the museum allowed photographs unless it was explicitly stated otherwise. Woo-hoo!

In the gift shop, I wanted to buy one of everything (but I didn’t).
Lunch in Seguin
Pat and I drove down to Seguin and Geronimo to check out some of the antique shops. We had lunch at the Court Street Coffee shop. It was our first time there, so we got some good advice from a group of nice women who eat there regularly. And it turns out I wasn’t the only vegetarian in the place: two of the women were vegetarian! I’m definitely going back. Good company and good food; it just doesn’t get any better.
