  1. El Morro National Monument is on NM-53 between Grants and Zuni. The towering mesa provided refuge for the Zuni in the late 1200s, with multiple structures on top of the cliffs.

    Runoff pools at the base. The rare, reliable source of water has attracted humans for thousands of years, with petroglyphs and etchings marking the passing of many groups of people across the centuries.

  2. Good morning tooters. It’s about 8c here this morning due to the low cloud holding in a little warmth & again the temps will only get to 17c with some rain forecast for the afternoon.
    I’m going home this morning & I didn’t sleep very soundly last night. The mattress on my bed is a very firm one that my joints don’t really like, so tossing & turning as areas became sore.
    Had a lovely day down in Rutherglen with my friend yesterday, we walked the main street of town & down a few side streets, into the park & walked around the lake, which is a lovely area that I’ve never seen before. I took a picture of a sculpture there that represents the lake & on the reverse side is the word lake in numerous languages, it’s lovely.
    Taking my fur charges off for a walk as soon as I’m showered & then back here to pack up, clean up & head home hopefully by around lunch time. Back here again in 5 weeks 😊.
    Enjoy your #Sunday everyone, have a great day 🌻. #Weather #HouseSit #PetSit #DayTrip #Rutherglen

  4. When Coronado arrived in 1540, the Tiguex population was at its peak with more than 20,000 people settled along 30 miles of the Rio Grande. Kuaua was at the north end of their province. First settled in the early 1300s and occupied through 1600, the pueblo spanned 6 acres and featured approximately 1,200 surface dwellings and storage rooms, 6 underground ceremonial kivas, and 3 rectangular plazas.

  10. The Valle Vidal is a 100,000-acre mountain basin in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Geologically, there are two halves:
    sedimentary sandstone, grassy valleys, and coal resources on the east side (Raton Basin edge), and steeper, uplifted volcanic and metamorphic terrain, with a history of gold mining on the west side.

  13. The Milk Ranch Canyon Trail is a 7.2-mile loop trail in the Zuni Mountains near Gallup, New Mexico, popular for hiking, mountain biking, and running. Considered moderately challenging, it features a mix of high desert, forests, and rock formations, and is best used from May to November due to a winter closure to protect trails from snow and runoff.

  19. Shiprock from Gallup is a ~1.5-hour drive north on U.S. Highway 491, leading to a striking volcanic neck formation. You can get a closer view or the formation and the dike wall by taking the paved Indian Service Road 13. Access to the base of Shiprock is restricted, so please view from the road or with a permitted tour guide, like Navajo Tours USA.

  25. The ferry ride between #Volendam and the peninsula of #Marken over the open water is one of my favorite short routes near #Amsterdam. The wind blows right off the sea, and those green wooden houses stand tightly packed by the harbor. If you like cheese, a quick stop in #Edam makes a lot of sense. A simple day trip that shifts your perspective entirely.

  30. Cloudcroft was founded as a logging camp for the railroad built through Alamogordo, 4500-feet below in the Tularosa Basin. The cooler temperatures in the mountains, and beautiful forests and meadows, made the village a popular destination for people seeking a reprieve from the heat at lower elevations.

  32. going to Italy for lunch,
