Peace Place
The day that Hurricane Ike landed, I was at Vallecitos Mountain Refuge. It’s a retreat center high up in the Carson National Forest of New Mexico, many miles from a paved road. Besides creating a little community with a remarkable set of folks from around the country (and Japan!), I simply love being there. Every autumn, Vallecitos is my bee-loud glade. A few images:

Compost, Thanks. The photos you took on your own New Mexico rambles really captured the colors and light so well. And Mursyid, I hope that you can make a visit Vallecitos yourself some day. Good luck with your studies!
