Howdy all and happy Nature Friday!
Today, I told Mama she could show everyone the highlights from
a recent "ride to nowhere" she took to the nearby Jemez Mountains!
There were beautiful red rock plateaus
She saw cool red rock formations too!
Such beautiful views!
She even saw some ruins!
I stayed home, you know...to take care of my buffalo.
Not because I get car sick or anything....
It's funny, New Mexico has lots of mountains....
But lots of trees too!!
It even has waterfalls!! This is the Soda Dam Waterfall. It's a natural dam where, when the Jemez river runs high, the water flows through to make the waterfall..
Very cool don't you think??
That wraps up this week's Nature Friday. Hopefully one day soon we can take Cece up there for a weekend so I can experience the Jemez Mountains too!
We hope you get out and see some nature this weekend!!

The mountains are so beautiful and different from what we are used to seeing.
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks like New Mexico. We didn't know you get car sick. That is certainly no fun!
ReplyDeleteNiece Sunny OMDs first and foremost I love your Nature Friday southwestern attire. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThank you very very much for allowing mama to share her road trip. I adore the red rocks and all the scenery. I wish I had a mountain (of any color) that I could see in less than 3 hours. BOL
Hugs Aunty C

ReplyDeleteWe loved seeing your pictures! What an amazing place!
ReplyDeleteLulu: "It's good of you to stay home to take care of your buffalo! We wouldn't want it to feel lonely while everyone is off on a road trip!"
ReplyDeleteJava Bean: "Our Dada was wondering if you saw U2 out there performing amongst the red rocks. We have no idea what he's talking about."
Charlee: "Dada is mixing up New Mexico and Colorado again, that's all."
Chaplin: "That natural dam sure is interesting. Although I'm not sure what kind of soda it is. Cherry Coke, maybe?"
OMG on the hat!!!! And the view. Wow, wow, wow.
ReplyDeleteThe landscape is so beautiful and you are so cute in your hat

Your rock mountains look so cool. You're loving New Mexico?
ReplyDeleteOf course you don't get car sick, Sunny. *cough, cough* We've never been in the Rocky Mountains, or even the Appalachians, which are almost close enough to walk to...almost. Take good care of that bufalo, and we'll visit again soon. XOX Xena, Lucy, Riley and Chia (but especially me, Chia)
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking!!!
