Hi Everyone! Here we are for another trip to Mesa Verde. This portion is filled with many hidden treasures. Some of these ruins you...you have to look really hard to see.
This is one of my favorites. It's several layers of ruins, built into very small crevices in the rock face. Some of these go back as far as 100 feet into the mountain!
Others are just built in an area that you wouldn't expect to have homes. This one is in a canyon area, at the very end of the canyon.
Read about Mesa Verde Here: Mesa Verde National Park
Another one with layers of ruins. One in the open, on the ledge, another in the cave above it. Do you think that's a third layer just under the ledge? Looks like it might be to me.
There are some built on top of peaks. They appear to be totally vulnerable to the wind and elements.
Another beautifully crafted home, tucked into a small nook. The people were very good at what they did!
They were so confident in their work, they built right up to the cliff! I wouldn't want to live there if I were prone to sleepwalking!! That's a long way down!!
This could possibly explain where we got the idea for High Vaulted Ceilings!! :)
This one is built on the floor of the canyon, with very low ceilings.

Hi, mylife! I sure did! I was a total slug...but what else is new. Got a in-home hook-up for my satellite radio so I can listen somewhere besides the car. Just need to get it installed into my stereo.

I'm still mentally adding and subtracting things I want to take. I keep thinking of what the weather will be like. This has been such a strange year. Who knew we'd have snow in the forecast here tonight!

You have a decent chance of snow?
They say we may get a "few flakes"

The unit I bought at Walmart had an in-home kit. Hubby got it for me. I know I'll like it when I get it hooked up.

wh!! Aloha, Hawaii!! Got sun? It's in the low 40s here, bright sun all day, and LOTS of melting. Spring might possibly be here.....a little early, but time will tell.

Probably not "decent". There has been a slight chance this evening and we've had drizzly rain already. I think it has been snowing a little north of us...up to Lubbock.
