Black Mesa Winery, Valverde NM
A quick stop at Black Mesa Vineyards and Winery, in Valverde, just out of the canyon south of Taos, en route to Santa Fe.

Unloading the wood fired kiln in Tres Piedras
Very exciting to see the finished pieces coming out of the kiln.....and to watch the faces of the potters as they saw their creations for the first time after firing.....very much a birthing process!
This firing required 24/7 vigilance and stoking for 12 days.....amazing!
Storm Clouds over the Rio Grande Gorge
River and Bogy, the flat back retrievers I'm hanging with, flanked me as we stood at the window and watched this storm ..... quite the event!
Marv Davis' creations
These masks are in their garden.
The double rainbow is not Marv's creation.... or maybe it is.....
