Original Message:   Reporting in on my Santa Fe trip
Just got back from Santa Fe - a very nice treasure-hunting adventure and my first visit there. My main destinations were the two Whitehawk shows - Antique Ethnographic Art and Antique Indian, plus the The Santa Fe Show, the Traveler's Market, and a smattering of antique stores. I also visited the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, and took a guided nature walk at the Hyde Memorial State Park. There were not a lot of antique Venetian or other trade beads to chose from, but I had fun seeing the area, walking the downtown boutiques, and checking out two of the outdoor flea markets with Junona and her husband Bruce, who happened to be visiting Santa Fe at the same time I was. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to meet Sarah, who was in town very briefly and had her time booked solid.

I could not take pictures at the shows, but took shots of various beads and exhibits at the Traveler's Market. I also took pictures of wild flowers at the park. Many of the flowers are tiny, and reminded me of taking photos of beads, so I've included a few of the flowers along side some of the beads I purchased on my trip.

Hope you enjoy the travelogue!
