Relax!
2010-10-20 —
Chilly mornings and bright sunny cool days. The weather in Angel Fire is always perfect for the season. We still have color on the mountains. It seems this year the color is so vibrant and we have had great weather to let the leaves linger on the trees a little longer. Town is quieter now, but people seem to be enjoying that fact, too! There is an ease and relaxed feeling so one seems rushed. It's a great time to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and just relax in the mountains....

It's another beautiful day here in Angel Fire. Our lovely aspens are beginning to turn golden, and in another couple of weeks the mountainsides will be on fire (so to speak!) with spectacular color. The elk are bugling, and soon they'll begin congregating on the golf course in the evenings. What a sight! Don't you wish you were here?
It's been a good summer, and as we enjoy another gorgeous fall we're all starting to think "snow." In fact we're supposed to get some overnight, though we have ...
