With more than 100 art galleries, Canyon Road probably has the prettiest holiday decorations of anywhere in Santa Fe. It’s great to drive up on a quiet night. The newly formed Canyon Road Gallery Association is organizing a holiday celebration with Canyon Road galleries staying open late this weekend Dec. 17-18 and again on Dec. 21-22, for holiday shopping, farolitos, bonfires, and hot chocolate.

Back at home, I found a great source for home-delivered firewood in Santa Fe—leave me a blog comment if you’d like his name! Nothing like a wood-burning fire for peaceful companionship on a winter’s night.
