August Flying Carpet 2024

 In August
The Flying Carpet
did loop-de-loops to Denver

the Skyscapes were astounding

Trinidad… a town out of time
past the Smiling Pig 
Saloon and Smokehouse (!)
and the Time Capsule Antique Store
and the Shaggy Sheep Emporium
to Denver
Congratulations to Zack
on his one person show
at the William Havu Gallery
Lunch at Domo
“ on the road again”
in Fairplay
to Salida
where the deer roam
on the lawns of quaint houses
and the river runs through
and there's alley delight
Guadalupe in Antonito
and blessed rain in Ojo Caliente
Special thanks to
 
Bill and Sharon Havu
