Gorgeous photos! Amazing stories. :) You’re making me want to hit the road to explore NM! I love that state. Are you guys making your way up to Mancos area? Let me know. I’ve got a camper with your name on it.

Bryan and Debi,

the eclipse photos are great. I’ve downloaded them to my computer and will use them next time I teach astronomy. When the sun shines onto the earth through leaves or our hair or any lacy thing, an image of the circular sun is projected. It is like an immense pinhole camera. so…when there is a crescent sun during the eclipse process it happens that we see the crescent sun form in the shadows. Your photos illustrates it perfectly. Every entry of your trip is a delight to read. Soon I’ll post my art pics on FB for a mutual show and tell. Love…

Thanks-we’re having a great time in west! We’ll wandering in Northern New Mexico for the next week and then crossing into Colorado.

Hello Miranda, thanks for you comment. Your hometown was just beautiful-we marvel at the rock faces and cliffs here in the Southwest…we don’t get these kinds of views where we grew up in the Northeast. Thanks for you correction as well, we’ll fix that :)

Thanks for the beautiful pictures of my hometown, Zuni. I’m glad to hear you were treated kindly while there. It’s interesting to hear your perspectives of the place, I tended to take the landscape for granted while living there. Now that I’m an A:shiwi abroad, I miss it so much. I agree, the way from St Johns to Zuni does have long roads. I call them Twilight Zone roads – isn’t this road done yet??!! I offer one humble correction, you drove past Pine Hill (with the barking dogs), a satellite section of the Navajo reservation, not Acoma. Did you meet Frannie at El Morro? She’s my cousin :) safe travels!
