I liked the way this baby yucca looked in front of this rustic fence.

St Clair Winery and Bistro has several establishments here in NM. This one is in Albuquerque. If you are ever in Albuquerque looking for a good place to eat … this would be a good place to consider. They also have live music. They day I was there Rodney Bowe was playing and it was very enjoyable!

I thought this was a lovely entrance to the winery’s patio. I also thought that the planters being wine barrels was a nice touch.
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY

These wine barrels sit outside an establishment that is always crowded. It has great food and atmosphere… oh yeah … and wine!! Check back tomorrow for #2 in the series.

I was wondering around Albuquerque today and found this most amazingly AWESOME mural. It is actually 3D and the colors are stunning.
I uploaded a larger size of this so that you can see the details if you so desire. And there is a photo of the plaque that was with it and a photo where I tried to capture the 3D ness of this mural on Albuquerque Extra.

This is another church in Martinez Town. On the smaller building it says Martineztown House of Neighborly Services. That is what actually caught my eye.

I have never eaten here and apparently I am missing something wonderful. There is always a line when I drive past and that is usually a sign that the food is good. I am going to try it for lunch later this week… I will report back.

This church is located in Martinez Town and it is the only church I know of that still has a mass said in Latin. Visit Albuquerque Extra to see another photo!

Dragon Boat Mosaic

I found this driving around the Martinez Town neighborhood in downtown Albuquerque. It was on a cinder block wall. I thought it was one of the most unique and beautiful mosaics I’ve seen in a long time!
