"Georgia O'Keeffe"
While visiting family in New Mexico last week, we had the chance to visit Ghost Ranch just outside of Abiquiu, New Mexico. It's located about an hours drive from Santa Fe. This place is where Georgia O'Keeffe spent a lot of time painting.
The landscape is breathtaking and the beautiful clouds were very wispy that day.
There are several trails to hike and we hiked Chimney Rock Trail. Box Canyon and Kitchen Mesa Trails were either being worked on or there was a movie being filmed, but our only option was spectacular.
There were a few steep areas along the trail.
There have been a few visitors who did not head the warning signs regarding the trail and it cost them their lives.
There are no gates to close the ranch, so people can come in and hike, but not recommended after dark.
You can definitely see why Georgia was drawn to this place.
Our next goal is to come out here and try the other two trails and try to catch a spectacular sunrise and sunset.

Thanks so very much for these pictures. I'm a desert girl living in North Carolina and so much miss the deep blue skies, wide open spaces and colors of the rocks, sand and such. Inspiration abounds out there.
