Wouldn’t it be beyond cool if one of the Fenn treasure hunters won this writing contest?
Oh, the tales they could tell.

Worth the cold.
So, we’re not throwing bedrolls in the back of the pick-up in December and heading out to search for Forrest Fenn’s hidden treasure, but we are enjoying the season.

We might not be decorating the the extent that my great-great-grandmother did, . . .
Hidden gems. Wait. Is that a Prussian soldier on the wall?
Merry Christmas and All the Best in the New Year!

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 5 years since a birthday wish for Forrest turned into an invitation to visit his place in Santa Fe. Fascinating man. Astounding collections. I treasure the memory.

Another day, another trip.
