Colorado Road Trip Day 11: Santa Fe

Monday, August 28, 2017
Trip Odometer: 1831

After breakfast, we continued south on Interstate 25 through varied terrain as we entered New Mexico. Due to mountains, I-25 follows a somewhat roundabout route to Santa Fe, approaching it from the southeast rather than directly from the north. This made the drive somewhat longer than the direct distance would suggest.

Santa Fe Hills

Our destination for the day is the home of our friends Dave and Jan, who live in a beautiful home in the hills north of Santa Fe. We arrived mid-afternoon and went for an early dinner at Tesuque Village Market, a favorite of ours from previous visits. Jan and Kenna then went to a quilting meeting, while Dave and I discussed improvements to the WiFi system at their home.
