Another shot from our Sunday trip to Pilar. That’s a bit of the Rio Grande in the foreground. Quite the lovely day it was, and warm, too. As I post this at 2:00 a.m. early Wednesday morning in Llano Quemado, however, heavy wet snow is falling straight down outside! Pilar is nearly a thousand feet lower than where we live, so it’s probably raining on the scene you see above.
Pilar, New Mexico
