Chevy Truck, Las Vegas, New Mexico

Chevy Truck, Las Vegas, New Mexico. Perfect pastel colors just across the street from the restored Castaneda Hotel a former Fred Harvey House. This was about the only action to be seen yesterday, the unloading a period refrigerator, in Las Vegas, New Mexico. The Bar Castaneda, at the hotel, serves a nice pint and good food. Anyone know the year of this truck? Ron, Mark? Thanks for looking. G

Silos Monte Vista Colorado

Silos in Monte Vista, Colorado. This image is about the amalgamation of shapes and subtle colors more than anything else. That’s why I made an about face and returned a mile back to make the image. Thanks for looking. G
