Santa Fe for another day

The first stop today was at the local Ford dealership to get the rear right turn signal bulb fixed. It is pretty scary driving in a city without it. Since I already had the bulb they did it in about 5 minutes for free.

Then it was off to the Museum of International Folk Art. For some reason many of my pictures came out blurry. Perhaps it had to do with shooting through glass.

Then we visited the Plaza which is the center of old Santa Fe and had lunch at La Fonda, a very old inn that has existed since the days of the old Santa Fe Trail. Loretta Chapel with its mysterious spiral staircase that legend has was created by a mysterious carpenter who built it with no nails or sophisticated tools and then he disappeared.

After many nights in hotels and dining out my friend Susan offered us a dinner and a night in her wonderful house. She just had guests for a week who left today and this was a very generous and appreciated offer.
