It’s been raining for the last 2 days. The Balloon Fiesta is having a big washout. One news report today said that the 6 inches of rain in the last 48 hours is more than the normal rainfall for New Mexico in the entire month of October. It’s supposed to clear up by tomorrow, and be nice until at least this coming weekend. Hopefully we’ll have an opportunity to attend another event at the Fiesta.
Today we went about 40 miles west to the Acoma Pueblo. We visited the museum, and toured the oldest continuously occupied in North America.
The Acoma have a long and colorful history. Since the end of the 19th century they have been careful to ensure that the protect and preserve their culture while working and building their economy in the modern world.
