On day 4 (June 4), we were in Santa Fe and did a scavenger hunt. It took us around to various sights and we had to solve clues to earn points. We had a great time and got to see many of the things I was hoping to see in Santa Fe.

After the scavenger hunt we drove out to El Rancho de Las Golondrinas. They have been working to restore this old ranch compound.
The next day we drove from Santa Fe to Eagles Nest to get Lauren to the wedding she needed to attend that evening.
On Sunday, June 6 we drove from Eagles Nest to Chama to board the Cumbres Toltec Railway. It takes you on the old railroad from Chama to Osier Colorado station, where they then feed you lunch and then bring you back to Chama. This railway is the longest and highest narrow gauge railroad. It was so beautiful.

After we returned to Chama, we drove to Taos for the night. The next morning we drove home to LB's house in Ft Worth.
What a great way to spend a week...exploring new places and adventure with your favorite girl!
