Charlie and I took our time this morning. We had breakfast at the motel/inn. A great breakfast with the cost of the room - hurray! After breakfast we walked back to the plaza. Charlie wanted a bolo tie. That wasn't quite as easy as it was 20 years ago - but he found a very nice black onyx and silver. We asked a number of places where he could get the bolo tie leather strings. They all directed us to the Santa Fe Jewelry Supply. Thanks to our Google lady, we even found out how to get there. We wandered some more - past the local native artists selling their wares along the Plaza.

After a bit, we decided to go to Canon road - the artist/gallery street near by. We found the LaRoche lady again. Several years ago we bought a red wolf in flowers from her. She's still around, but she's moved on to deer, bears, and cats in charcoal not acrylic. I like the wolves better. We had lunch on Canon road. We even managed to split a sandwich.

After we wandered back to the motel/inn, we got in the car and drove to the jewelry supplier. What a nifty place! Not only did they have all the jewelry findings you could imagine (and more), they had Charlie's bolo tie leather and the silver tips for the end. While Charlie was playing with those, I wandered over and looked at the loose stones. Wow! One in particular caught my eye - a blue turquoise with black in it that was beautiful. I bought the stone, and plan to take it back to the jewelry mart in LA to get it mounted.
Back to the motel/in for a rest.
