Santa Fe - horseback riding and jazz

Took a sunset ride at Bishop's Lodge Ranch in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, with the warm glow of a magnificent sunset as the backdrop and the scent of PiƱon pines. We rode western style and wrangler Joe accompanied us. Below are some photos of the experience:

After the ride, we just made it to the bar of "El Meson" in downtown Santa Fe in time to see the final set of the Greg Abate Quartet from New York: http://elmeson-santafe.com/  Greg is a talented saxophonist and flautist (see video below): http://www.gregabate.com/
