http://C:\Documents and Settings\HP_...g pics 009.jpgDanaC....The photos in the heather are beautiful. I loved the heather smell when I was over there and took many pictures of moors and heather (enough to bore anyone looking through my photos). Cicero, The pics of N. Mexico are great. I have been through New Mexico...quite a number of years ago. Loved Albuquerque and the pink hills as we came down into the town early in the morning as the sun rose. I'll have to search out some photos of here in Tennessee. Meantime, here is a picture of my little home. (If I did this right) : /

Wow. What a landscape you have surrounding your home Philly! Makes my valley look tiny!!
|
Yours seems tiny in a way but so much packed into every mile and such incredible views and the ever changing sky! We get hot here and sometimes the sky is just faded with the heat, especially this summer. But...we do have the Smokey Mountains and they are beautiful too in their way. I am only an hour and a half from the mountains. A lovely respite from the heat usually.

Our fair Valley has some historical value. I'm living out of a 300 year old plaza that happens to be the oldest standing Plaza in NM. It's awesome. The Spanish built it for protection from the indians. Here is a shot of the part of the plaza that wasn't gentrified or maintained. This is one side of the old plaza that created a square with the planting done in the middle. I live on the south side and this is the west side from the northern view.(Just in case Shawnee's ghost is lurking, I know she wanted more shots)

Beautiful! I love old buildings. There's nothing quite like being surrounded by history when you come home.

This is an acequia. (I didn't know what an acequia was before I moved here so I'm assuming others are confused too) These are awesome. This main one feeds the entirety of our property with much needed groundwater and has been split in three directions feeding the orchard, pond, and garden. It is also historical....it was built previous to the plaza by the Tano indians. Sorry I'm in a rush......

I've posted a few shots of this view, but I really liked this one, so at the risk of repetition....:P Taken this afternoon whilst walking Pilau.

Wow - very cool cicero, I'd love to see more of it.
