June 25 2014 A Wool Kind of Day

It was a brisk 44 degrees this morning. I built a nice fire and drank my coffee. Susan got up all stopped up. Her allergies are bad and nothing is helping. After breakfast we went to Los Ojos, a very small poor community. It has a really nice old church, small restaurant and a wool weaving business.  Tierra Wools is the place. They have several weavers who make all kinds of things. The lady that runs it now has had it for 31 years. Everything is done here starting with the animals to the finished product. Don’t expect to find anything cheap here. I was amazed at the prices but then again everything is handmade.  After that we drove to Dulce which is a town in the Jicarilla Apache Reservation. We didn’t know what to expect but let’s just say we have been there. We then drove to Pagosa Springs, Colorado.  It was a very pretty drive. Typical tourist town but we did find a nice cantina to eat lunch. Then we headed back to the park and just chilled the rest of the day.
