Georgia O'Keefe and the Plaza in Santa Fe

After a great american style breakfast at the Tune Up...we headed to the Georgia O'Keefe Museum, Carol has lived here three years, but this was her first visit. No pictures inside of course, so this is proof I was here and it was a gorgeous sunny day.
Then we took a stroll down the lane with Native sellers at the Portal of the Palace of the Governors on the Plaza. Plenty of turquoise and hand made jewelery, I was hoping maybe I'd find a replacement for the ring I bought three years ago and managed to loose at the Hollywood Farmer's Market about a year later. But I found out that not many man's rings are made, and I NEED a size 11, so could not find anything I liked, which is just fine.
We walked into the LewAllen Gallery and met Barbara whom I met three years ago. She's a REAL art dealer.....she took a phone call attempting to sell a $15 Million Giacometti in Zurich, I do so hope she puts that together, she could retire. We walked out during her phone call and then heard her calling up the street Caaaarrrrooooolll so they had a catch up chat.
Sweet government building near the Plaza.
Before leaving the downtown area, we slipped by the Cafe de Paris and Bakery, found an almond croissant and a pain au raisin, took them home and enjoyed with tea....oh so good and so very French.
