Photo Shoot with Acacia: The Bosque

Another glorious day with Acacia. This time we went down to the Bosque. A bosque is the green strip of land on both sides of a river. So, really we've been going to the bosque all along, but this time we went to THE Bosque near the Rio Grande Nature Center at the end of Candelaria in ABQ. It's got a museum and visitor's center, maintained trails, and picnic benches. They also have a rescue center (Wildlife Rescue, Inc. of New Mexico) for any wildlife in distress. Last year, my son and I brought in a tiny nest of hummingbird babies that had been orphaned during a really bad storm. The lady told us that this is a very common occurrence during the wet season. They got accommodations for millions of hummingbird babies down there! They also have a great page with info on what to do when you find a hurt animal here.

Albuquerque Style: Summerfest and the Railyards Revisited!

Every Abq event MUST have fancy cars. It's a must.

Another phenomenal spring weekend here in Albuquerque. Man, I used to think there was nothing to do in this town. Ever since I decided to take pictures of stylin people, I've discovered there's actually a TON of stuff going on! I've been missing out! Plus, it's a great excuse to talk to cute mens.

Saturday: Northeast Heights Summerfest! CHERRY POPPIN DADDIES headlined! WOW! They had food trucks, dog adoptions, wicked cool vendors, a huge beer garden, and of course an awesome musical lineup, including Albuquerque's favorite, Chat Lunatique. 

And of course, TONS of stylish peeps.

Albuquerque Style: Folk Fest and Gypsy Fest

It was a BIG weekend here in Albuquerque! There was a lot to choose from, fun-wise. Saturday, it was folk fest at the balloon park. Awesome music, food, stuff, kids, styly peeps!

Sunday it was Gypsy Fest up in Madrid. Absolutely worth the trip, even if just to ogle the colorful fashions.

FOLK FEST!

ABQ Style: Mother's Day at the Railyards!

This kid. Simple outfit. Striking look.

Albuquerque has a really awesome new happening! This is one of the most exciting things to happen in this town since I moved here 7 years ago.

I'll be using a lot of exclamation marks in this post.

The Rail Yards Market is "a celebration of Albuquerque arts, food, culture and music."
