Dale Bell Trail trials

John, Peg, and Kitty hiked the Dale Bell Trail outside of Santa Fe -- until we heard thunder and returned to the car.  The storm caused a loss of power across the entire town.  We sought shelter in a bar ... only to find out that bars aren't serving during a storm -- can't serve alcohol without food because patrons get looped or our credit cards can't make charges-- really???
We finally find a working bar-- no lights but still serving.  We get IPAs, margaritas, and wine.  All is well. Another storm comes through. 


The O's and Herring/Keogh hotel develops a fire in the bar chimney.  We ignore it and go to dinner. Following dinner, the fire is out-- everyone goes back to their respective rooms. Kitty offers her room as a backup in case rooms at Inn of the Governors aren't habitable.  All is well.
