a few more . . .

I wanted you to see some of the flavor of the town of Taos, but as I said yesterday, blogger wasn't letting me post more pics . . .

this pic shows main street (I know, how cute is this "main street") a couple hours before the parade . . .















this pic shows the beginning of the parade from the same spot . . .















how adorable were these girls . . . .















this is where we hung out most of that afternoon . . .















anyway, I love my culture and the simplicity of our state. As you can tell, this weekend was exceptionally special. I do want to tell a quick story about my girl Pat. She was pretty toasted Friday night (morning) and at one point, Chris and I were on the couch (laying, 'cause we were tired) and Ms. conservative Patricia came in and proceeded to tell us the three rules of Taos....(she thinks she's the queen of Taos)....rule #1, you eat....rule #2, you drink....rule #3, you sleep. But when you say all of this, you have to say it with a slight slur and a little mooch....needless to say, Chris and I laughed at her the rest of the morning with her 3 rules. She kills us!
