Rattlesnake 2 - Meow Wolf Yesterday and Tent Rocks - Kasha Katuwe Today

Had an encounter with a second rattlesnake last week. Benni was carrying a stick, saw the snake about 10 feet away, dropped his stick and stood still. Leon called Benni back and he came running. Maybe the rattlesnake aversion training worked.

Yesterday we went to an art installation in Santa Fe Called "MeowWolf" but it had nothing to do with cats or dogs or wolves. It is an interactive, creative, sculptural, multi-media, architectural, conglomeration that is supposed to tell a story with clues and portals into other dimensions. Kool.

It starts in an ordinary looking house...



Be sure to open the refrigerator!
And crawl into the fireplace

Today I hiked Tent Rocks National Monument - Kasha Katuwe with Len from Santa Fe and Allen from Pecos. Actually both are originally from Brooklyn and Bronx so they have a lot in common...they know every movie and old movie star and all the best lines ever spoken by Bette Davis.

Had a very nice time. Allen is a geologist, so he gave us an interesting perspective on the formations and rocks. It was a beautiful day, not too hot, nice breeze. 

Tent Rocks is about 5 miles from where we live, on Cochiti Pueblo and BLM land.

I think they're called Hoo-doos

I think New Mexico must agree with you, Frank - all these intrepid adventures in one week! You're getting to be a real Jeremiah Johnson.
