Jemez

OK…we went to Jemez…Mo, Parvaneh, dad and I…as we arrived they were preparing to start a new dance…200 or more men, women and little children dancing half-naked following the same rhythm to the sound of drums. I was deeply impressed…mesmerized…sank in the flow of time hearing voices of people living hundreds of years ago talking to me…”We’re all mortal.”
It was freezing cold .NO photography…our team was bored…so we left…driving through the beautiful mountains of Sandia to a nice little restaurant. We had great food, great chat, and lots of laugh…
On the way back to Albuquerque I could still hear them talking to me to the sound of drums…”We’re all mortal.”
