Wednesday, September 6th: My sweet friend, Kris Steel, invited her 60+ year old friends to join her on an outing to Santa Fe during the Wednesday free for seniors Rail Runner train ride, and three of us came. I also invited Patti Waseta to join us, making five in all.
We walked from the train to the Plaza, had a delicious Mexican lunch, shopped, sat, and ate ice cream. I have never done anything like this with family or with friends, so it was extra fun for me.
I reminisced of fond memories visiting Jared and his young family when they lived in Santa Fe early in their marriage. I remember how excited they were to have their first newly built house. I also thought about how Jared used to take the Rail Runner into work and back everyday when he lived in Belen and landed his first job outside of Sandia at a start-up company in Santa Fe. He made many sacrifices early in life as a young husband and provider. I am really proud of him and of each of our awesome children.

| A coolest ever pottery shop |

I think the pottery shop, the Christmas shop, and the balsamic store were our favorites overall. We are going back the end of November when the Plaza is covered in Christmas lights! We want to stay longer too.

Gotta go back and buy some of these gorgeous hot air balloon ornaments for family members and friends.
