Escape to a more tranquil place. Yeah…we all need it…especially in such uncertain times. On this 6-day Januaury 2020 friendship trip — we visited the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico. This retreat to rediscover ourselves and natures bounty was a special time to reconnect and appreciate special friendships; while we explored the natural winter’s beauty of Santa Fe and Albuquerque.
