remnants of snow


Remnants, indeed - but more is due overnight.  We're crossing our fingers that it will have sufficiently melted, and that the roads will be sufficiently gritted, for our return trip on Friday/Saturday - if so, it should be a pretty ride!  But cross-country travel is always a bit of a gamble at this time of the year ... This is a bridge on the railway line between the mainline station at Lamy, and Santa Fe - the route of the Sky Railway, owned by George R. R. Martin (who lives in Santa Fe) and with one engine painted as a dragon, one as a wolf.  We went on a sunset trip a decade or more ago, when it was the Santa Fe Southern Railroad - the new outfit seems decidedly snazzier, with carriages refurbished to look like the 1920s: it promises an "immersive experience" (which had better involve cocktails, as it promises).  Come and visit, which will give us an excuse for a touristy outing ...
