Rancho de la Golondrinas, located just outside Santa Fe, is a real treasure. This living history ranch gives visitors the memorable experience of taking a step back in time to explore the "Ranch of the Swallows". On non-festival days you are welcome to do a self-guided tour and learn from the few docents available throughout the property. However, on event days the ranch comes alive with costumed interpreters, demonstrations of how the place operated historically, along with hands-on activities for visitors of all ages.

My favorite Los Golondrinas event is the Harvest Festival, taking place the weekend of October 5 and 6. Now in its 47th year, this Harvest Festival was voted as the #2 such festival in the country by USA Today.

Activities include: watching syrup being made from the b***o driven sorghum mill; helping to make cider with the hand-cranked traditional apple press; picking your own pumpkin from the large on-site pumpkin patch, grape stomping; making your own harvest wreath; rolling your own tortillas; plus an opportunity to buy an assortment of locally produced foods and handicrafts.

October 5, 6
10am-4pm
Adult Admission: $8
Seniors (62+), teens (13–18): $6
12 and under: FREE!

It's time to get your tickets for the upcoming season of the renowned Santa Fe Opera. As always, there is a mix of well known and lesser known classics (this year La Boheme, The Pearl Fishers and Cosi Fan Tutte), along with a couple of newer productions (Jenufa and The Thirteenth Child).

The magnificent stage, with a backdrop of the stunning Jemez Mountains, reminds you that while you are hearing Metropolitan Opera quality voices, you are definitely not in New York City!

The Santa Fe Opera offers shuttle service from La Posada (reservations needed 24 hours in advance), just one block from the inn, or you can drive your own vehicle. I recommend getting there early so you can do a tailgate picnic and take in one of our glorious sunsets before the performance. The opera does offer tailgate picnics ($19 or $28 each) or more formal Preview Dinners (for $70), should you wish to avoid any pre-opera food shopping. Another fun pre-opera activity is to attend the Prelude Talks, free and informative discussions on the opera of the evening that are offered free of charge to all interested parties.

The 2019 opera season opens on June 28 with La Boheme: this is always a gala affair, with most attendees dressed in their finest.
The season closes on July 24, also with La Boheme. Tickets may be purchased online at the opera website.

Not a skier? Santa Fe has dozens of lower elevation trails that are perfect for early spring hiking.

Today's hike, behind St. John's College and just a five minute drive from the Hacienda Nicholas, was phenomenal. With afternoon temperatures in the 50s, a babbling brook running along the trail from all the melting snow, and a virtually empty trail (we saw only five other people in our two hours of walking), it was a beautiful early spring hike.

Santa Fe woke up to 12" of fresh snow on Saturday morning, and the sun came up soon thereafter, making for postcard perfect vistas everywhere. Ski Santa Fe got two feet of snow in the storm, making for optimal ski conditions - a great time to come for a Santa Fe Ski Getaway!
