Ghost Ranch, Georgia O’Keeffe

Over the past week we have been all over New Mexico!  We have so many places to feature on our site!  

Earlier in the week we took a horseback ride through Ghost Ranch, the home of American artist Georgia O’Keeffe.  Georgia O’Keeffe maintained two homes in Norhtern New Mexico and one was on the edge of Ghost Ranch; she purchased the land in 1940.  The greater ranch was operated as a “dude ranch” at the time, but now the ranch is owned by the Presbyterian church and is an educational retreat.  

Our ride through the ranch passed many of the inspirations of O’Keeffe’s paintings as well as her house.  Our video and pictures just can’t capture to colors and beauty of the area.  Below is a link to the O’Keeffe Museum for more about her life and art.

We will be doing a reviews of Los Poblanos Inn, El Vado State Park, Abiquiu Lake State Park and Petrified Forest National Park.

Travel update:  We are traveling to Lake Powell and will be there about a week hopefully completing activities that we missed last year!
