Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument, New Mexico

We finally decided to take a winter day trip that was well worth the drive. We went to Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument near the Cochiti Pueblo in New Mexico. It was a great 45 degree and sunny day to go for a hike in the foothills of the Jemez Mountains. The weather was great and there was still some snow on the ground but later on in the hike we found out that there was still some deep snow that prevented us from reaching the end of the canyon trail. Here are some great pictures form our most recent winter day trip.

Funtime in the Fall

Fall is upon us. This is my favorite time of year. Cool weather, falling leaves, the big harvest, and the great pumpkin help make autumn a great time of year. My favorite things to do are to go to the pumpkin patches where most big farms have a large operation with lots of things to do for the whole family. Our local pumpkin farm not only provides the best pumpkins but they offer tractor rides, haunted houses, animals, petting zoo, corn mazes and lots of yummy foods. Check out your local pumpkin farm for the same kind of fall fun.
