Window of Color to the Sandia Mountains

This past weekend my wife and I enjoyed a stroll through the Albuquerque Bosque (Cottonwood Forest) at the peak of her colors.  The sky was a deep blue and the leaves a brilliant gold.  The sounds of the leafy crunch and the aging Rio Grande wondering by were mesmerizing.  We know Albuquerque Inside and Out!  Give us call with you're real estate needs.  We're Albuquerque Homes Realty at www.AlbuquerqueHomes.com

John - As I dig out of about a foot of new snow today, I encourage to enjoy and savor every moment that you have left of your fall season! It won't last long!

John-That frame really sets that photo off nicely. The mountains in the background really challenge eyes and make me wonder is this a photo or a great still life painting? Or maybe I just need a better monitor.

John  You are making me homesick for Albuquerque and the times we camped in the Sandisa

Posted by Karen Kruschka - Prince William, Fairfax ,Stafford County VA Real Estate Service (RE/MAX Olympic Realty) 7 months ago

John, You've got beautiful country there!  And for a day trip, making the loop to the Jemez Mountains, across the caldera, over to Bandelier and Santa Fe before heading back to the Q is a fantastic day :)

Karen & Bill .... The Red River area has a fire blazing.  Having trouble getting it out due to the winds and are afraid it's only going to get worse over night.  Sandia has had a fire on the west (Albuquerque) side for since Friday.  They finally  have it contained.  As you know fires and high desert don't mix toss in winds and we have trouble.

Posted by John McCormack- AlbuquerqueHomes.com (Albuquerque Homes Realty * www.AlbuquerqueHomes.com) 7 months ago
Hi John, This is a lovely framed picture of the mountains. I love the earthtone colors and makes us feel like we are getting close to winter soon.Thanks for sharing and I am sorry to hear about your fire nearby. We get a lot of fires here in Calfornia too. Very sad.
