THEME: RELIGION (Post #38; Day #35)

The Chapel of Our Lady of Guadalupe (Capilla de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe) is tucked away among the shops of historic Old Town Albuquerque. It is said to be the smallest church building in Albuquerque. Despite its obvious Catholic character, it was originally intended as an all-faiths chapel for artists seeking a spot for relaxation and reflection. It is open 24 hours a day, every day.

THEME: WINTER (Post #36; Day #32)

Winter arrived in Albuquerque last night. Having previously lived in Alaska, I can understand why most of you think this shot of our back yard hardly qualifies as "winter," but what you don't see are the roads, coated in a solid sheet of ice. The city is not equipped with much snow equipment, so driving is tricky. My normal 20 to 25 minute commute took more like an hour and a half, only to find that my workplace was closed because of inclement weather, so I had to get right back on the roads to return home. Got home two hours and 45 minutes after leaving. Should never have left!
