We started out our visit to Santa Fe with a hike in the hills and found great views along with snow-covered cactus.

We’d been hearing about Meow Wolf, an interactive art exhibit that is somehow linked to George R. R. Martin. I found out it would be closed for renovations starting Tuesday so we rushed over to get a peek Monday night. I’m not sure that the few photos or any description I write here can adequately depict what it is. We had fun trying to piece together the story that frames the work but barely scratched the surface.

Tuesday we woke up to a dusting of snow and headed out to visit the Georgia O’Keefe museum. Next up we took a peek at the Mysterious Staircase, a feat of woodworking that was featured on Unsolved Mysteries. and perused galleries full of western-themed art. Later we met up with a former Callisto colleague of mine, Megan, for a hike through a local dog park with her pup. Rocky, Kyle and I were all grateful for the social interactions outside the car :)
