Farmers' Market and Folk Art

We're going to end our day in the most leisurely and luxurious way, so we got busy this morning and took in the Santa Fe Farmers' Market.....
Roasting peppers over the flame
The Tuesday market at the Santa Fe Railyard

Lots of chiles to choose from

Door hangers for fall
and followed up with a visit to our favorite museum anywhere, the International Folk Art Museum
From the permanent collection. This is but one 3-dimensional scene featuring hundreds of dolls.
We had already visited in 2008, but returned to see the Japanese kite exhibit which was nothing short of amazing...
This kite was huge - probably 16' by 10'

Note number of strings required to get these babies to take wing.
My favorites.
Color me inspired.
