I had to drive to Los Alamos today in the howling wind. The dust obliterated the landscapes along the way, and the clouds were low and snow was falling in Los Alamos, so the only good photo opportunity out of the drive was a panorama of the Sandias from Rio Rancho above Bernalillo, late in the afternoon on my way home.
The wind was blowing so hard in Santa Fe that a young couple at the rest stop between La Bajada and La Cienaga were walking to their car backwards against the wind to shield their coffee cups, so the coffee wouldn't get blown on them. The wind still blew the coffee out of their cups, so by the time they got to their car they had half the coffee they started with.
A rust colored iris bloomed this afternoon, showing off interesting color and patterns. I'm still waiting for the black bud to bloom. I'm pretty sure the iris will be purple, but I curious to see how dark of a purple it will be compared to the lavender iris next to it.
We got a shipment of Anasazi beans today. Laurie put them on the counter and she said within minutes Stretch was lounging around on them. She did the photo of him on the bean bags. He's still curled up on them as I write.
I got some photos of Puck on pink, but caught him off guard, so he looks like a soft, sweet, sleepy kitty. He threatened to scratch my eyes out if I posted pictures of him on pink looking like a sissy cat. He has his reputation as a demon cat to keep up!
