Historic New Mexico Mission Tours -Santa Fe via Pueblo Bonito Inn.
San Miguel Mission: also known as San Miguel Chapel, is a Spanish colonial mission church located in downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico - a block from the historic Pueblo Bonito Inn. Claimed to be the oldest church in the United States, San Miguel Mission was built around 1626. Damage sustained during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 was rebuilt in 1710 following the Spanish reconquest for which the chapel served Spanish soldiers. Hand carved pieces located inside the chapel include a wooden statue of Saint Michael dating back to at least 1709. Though the church has been repaired and rebuilt numerous times over the years, its original adobe walls are still largely intact despite having been hidden by later additions. The mission is a U.S. National Historic Landmark.
Loretto Chapel- originally a Roman Catholic church, now privately owned and used as a museum with wedding chapel. A long time subject of legend, the "Miraculous Staircase" and circumstances surrounding it are considered miraculous by the Sisters of Loretto as well as many visitors. In 1872, a convent chapel was commissioned to be built and named Our Lady of Light Chapel for the Sisters of Loretto. Designed by French architect Antoine Mouly in Gothic Revival style, ornately decorated with spires, buttresses, and stained glass windows imported from France, the Loretto Chapel built on a smaller scale, bears close resemblance to Paris's Sainte-Chapelle. After the architect's sudden death, and much of the construction finished, it was realized no type of stairway to the choir loft was provided. Needing a way to get up to the choir loft the nuns prayed for St. Joseph's intercession for nine straight days after which a stranger appeared at their door. Offering to build the nuns a staircase, but requiring total privacy he locked himself in the chapel for three months. Using a only primitive tools including a square, saw and warm water he constructed a spiral staircase entirely of non-native wood. The carpenter's identity was never known for as soon as the staircase was finished he was gone. Witnesses, upon seeing the staircase, felt it was constructed as a miraculous occurrence by St Joseph himself. The mystery has never been solved as to who the carpenter was or where he got his lumber, for no reports were made of anyone seeing lumber delivered nor of the man come and go while construction was done. Less than a five minute walk from Pueblo Bonito b&b inn- the Loretto Chapel is a must see when Mission touring Santa Fe.
Cristo Rey church (Spanish for Christ King), is a beautiful adobe example of historic New Mexico Mission architecture with notable Spanish colonial retablos and santos adorning its sanctuary. Used for worship, weddings and community events, this active Roman Catholic church quietly sits at the east end of Canyon Rd on the corner of Cristo Rey street. An easy five minute drive from Pueblo Bonito b&b as you peruse the famous art and sculpture work on Canyon Road.
Galisteo Mission the Pueblo of the Tanos (Galisteo Pueblo) was founded around 1250 AD. A thriving community of 1,000+ surface dwellings was situated on the west side of Galisteo Creek. This pueblo presented an impressive appearance to outside visitors for the time period. Once named "San Lucas" by Spanish settlers in 1590, Juan de Oñate renamed the pueblo "Santa Ana" in 1600. In early seventeenth century again renaming occurred and the village became known as "Santa Cruz de Galisteo". Franciscan brothers founded this first permanent mission among the Tanoan speaking people in 1612. It was the earliest mission in the Galisteo Basin as well as one of the earliest missions in New Mexico. This 17th century church was unique as it was built sufficiently wide – having three aisles with two rows of support columns leading from the sanctuary. Though it is not certain whom is responsible for the notable church design, Fray Pedro de Ortega, is thought to have contributed. Galisteo Mission is located a short, but beautiful 20 minute drive south of Santa Fe's Pueblo Bonito bed and breakfast inn off Hwy 41 in Galisteo New Mexico.
The Santuario de Guadalupe originally built in 1781, located on Guadalupe St- just a five minute walk north-west of Pueblo Bonito b&b inn, it is known as the "Soul of Santa Fe". This historic mission church played a very significant role in religious, cultural, and traditional life of the people of Santa Fe. It is the oldest, still-standing church dedicated to Our Lady of Guadalupe in the US and Canada. Located at the end of the Camino Real (the main route from Mexico City via Chihuahua to the Southwest) which brought Spanish ancestors and the Franciscan friars who ministered and sowed seeds of Christian faith with a devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe. This historic New Mexico mission is considered to be very holy. El Santuario de Guadalupe church is currently an art and history museum and contains the Archdiocese of Santa Fe's collection of New Mexican santos (carved images of the saints), Italian Renaissance paintings, and Mexican baroque paintings. Among the treasured works is Our Lady of Guadalupe, one of the largest and finest oil paints of the Spanish Southwest, dated 1783 and signed by Jose de Alzibar, one of Mexico's most renowned painters.Sanctuario de Chimayo – Located north of Santa Fe, New Mexico on Hwy 285/520 – a short 20 minute drive from Inn at Pueblo Bonito in the historic village of Chimayó, New Mexico – one can view this rustic and serene active Roman Catholic Church. This is one of the most famous churches in New Mexico and North America. Known as a shrine and National Historic Landmark, El Sanctuario de Chimayo receives over 300,000 visitors a year and is called the most important and largest Catholic pilgrimage center in the United States. The walled courtyard entrance is one of the most photographed sites in Northern New Mexico and houses a small cemetery. This picturesque church, built of three foot thick adobe walls has a bell tower on each side with pointed caps and a metal pitched roof that were probably added in the 1920s. Thick, yet elegant wood doors were carved by 19th-century carpenter Pedro Domínguez while notable folk-art carvings and decorations can be found inside the sanctuary and narthex. Of special note, a small room called el pocito (the little well), located just left of the front alter, contains a round pit. This "round pit" is the source of "holy dirt" (tierra bendita) that is believed to have healing powers. The adjacent Prayer Room displays photographs, discarded crutches, and unique testimonials of those who have received healing. Recently added is the outside sanctuary needed to receive mass numbers of pilgrims on Good Friday and Easter walks.
Pecos Mission (aka: Mission Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles de Porciúncula or Mission of Our Lady of the Angels of Porciúncula) was a mission that served the people of Pecos Pueblo near Pecos, New Mexico. The first church at Pecos Pueblo is thought to have been built by Franciscan Fray Pedro Zambrano Ortiz around 1619. This isolated church was built along a narrow ridge, 400 m northeast of the pueblo's main quadrangle, as the pueblo people would not allow construction closer to their dwelling sites. A permanent church was constructed outside the walls of the pueblo of Pecos, New Mexico in 1625. This church was destroyed in the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, wherein the Spanish were ejected from New Mexico. After the Spanish reconquest in 1693, a smaller church was built in 1717 for which the walls of this later church still stand on top of the prior church's stone foundation. Ruins are located 25 miles south east of Santa Fe's Pueblo Bonito Inn off I-25 in Pecos National Historic Park.

Birders not knowing where to find spring birds can easily miss out on seeing many spectacular species native to Santa Fe and New Mexico. Knowing where to find and watch birds can lead to unique bird sightings and opportunities leading to refreshing and renewed interests in birding after long winter months.
Pueblo Bonito B&B inn in downtown Santa Fe creates a unique and distinctively memorable opportunity to enjoy up close and personal an inviting outdoor atmosphere for native New Mexico birds to viewed. Early Spring (May) sightings of Tangers (below left) resting on blooming branches of one of our large elm trees at Pueblo Bonito Inn as well as Rufous Towee (below right).
Commonly seen at Pueblo Bonito b&b inn – Santa Fe throughout the summer months are Mountain Blue Jays- large in size with beautiful displays of distinctive powder blue breast; Sparrows- buckskin brown in color and petite in stature, yet large in personality; and hummingbirds which are always a popular sight and sound!
Not as commonly seen at Pueblo Bonito b&b, but a delight when spotted is the roadrunner- New Mexico's official state bird. We do see these little guys running along the sides of highways and byways frequently throughout New Mexico, as well as down streets of Santa Fe while momentarily flying over a fence (contrary to the popular belief- they do fly!).
Where to Find Birds in Santa Fe in Spring: Keys to finding birds in spring is to look for areas with freshly sprouting green and flowers. These are critical clues to attract both resident birds and visiting migrants. While spring birds can appear in any area, birder watchers who visit the right areas will see many more species. To find the most spring birds, check out…Migration Flyways: In both spring and fall, birds travel similar routes between their wintering grounds and breeding grounds. Visiting nature refuges and birding hotspots along migration flyways can be very productive birding during spring migration.

The current theatre opened in 1998 and combines a total area 26,615 square feet of sweeping stage and mezzanine roofs which have a clerestory joining the two roofs. The "shape of the sound" inspired the roof concept has curves that follow the acoustic reflections of sound from stage to audience.

Santa Fe Travelers love the City Different!
Whether you're planning a New Mexico vacation, a Santa Fe visit or permanent relocation, you'll come to realize that Santa Fe is "the City Different". Why is Santa Fe known as "The City Different"?
Unlike many vacation destinations you may have visited, Santa Feans are extremely friendly and our town itself is smaller, more intimate- yet Santa Fe boasts attractions that easily stand up to many a metropolis:
*World Class art galleries and museums
*Family entertainment, events, and festivals
*Gourmet dining; Opera/Symphony performances and other cultural nightlife
*History, Rich Native American culture, Unique architecture
*World-class shopping
*National Parks and natural beauty abound
*Easy access to nearby sites and day trips
*Numerous opportunities for worship and spirituality
*Easy convenient, walkable downtown with historic sites, cultural events, performances etc.
Santa Fe is "the City Different" because, unlike other cities, our history is an integral part of our day-to-day life, augmented by modernity rather than erased by it. Established by indigenous hunters and gatherers, influenced by Hispanic immigrants and explorers, and populated over the centuries by numerous other European descendants, Santa Fe continues to embrace new diversity and to celebrate our cultural heritage. Legacies from these earlier groups endure in harmony: in nearby pueblos and reservations, through diverse festivals and traditions, even in the local foods grown and eaten and in the beauty that nurtures us.
No American city has ever been more beautiful and well preserved. Centuries ago, newcomers were drawn to this area because of the scenic splendor. They stayed because the earth offered bountiful lands providing precious minerals and gems, including gold, silver, and turquoise. Today, unique among many cities, Santa Fe New Mexico boasts spectacular views and experiences of nature. Several mountain ranges – visible wherever you turn—beckon to hikers, skiers, birdwatchers, horseback riders and nature enthusiasts. The Rio Grande replenishes the high desert plains and valleys, sustaining productive fields to supply local farmers and markets, as well as pastures for domesticated cattle and buffalo and the wild herds of antelope will take your breath away when sight them from the highways and byways.
Finally, Santa Fe has earned its nickname because it truly is different, in indescribable ways. There is a spirit here which defies definition, yet you feel it in the purity of the air, in the vivid colors of each season, in the deep blue of the heavens and the vastness of the night sky. There is an ethereal quality that turns mere neighbors into lifelong friends as locals take things a little slower, living by the unspoken code of "manana". One stands a little taller, breathes a little easier, relaxes and smells the roses in the City Different.
We invite you to come and experience this delightful City of Difference and allow us at Pueblo Bonito bed and breakfast inn to provide your accommodations- making your Santa Fe vacation a time to remember. Call us at 1-800-461-4599 or book online at

Ryan Dempster ran into some trouble during the first game of the Red Sox' Sunday double header, giving up four runs in seven innings. That number snapped the Sox' starting rotation streak of allowing three or fewer runs.
Dempster said the starter group aims to push one another with each outing to give the team a chance to win. Sunday afternoon's game just came up short.
Hear what else Dempster had to say in the video above.

Easter devotions are here! Sign up for our Lent and Easter email devotions.
15:48 of dust . . . of heaven. Here is a final contrast, suggesting that vv. 42–44 refer to the distinction between earthly and heavenly human bodies. In this context the distinction, however, is not one of substance but of time; the present evil age is contrasted with the coming perfect age. Believers already enjoy some of the blessings of the coming age (10:11 note) but still await its consummation. God's work of redemption will not be complete until the bodily resurrection. We have borne the image of the first Adam, and since we belong to Christ, we are destined to bear the image of the last Adam (v. 49).

Match Report
Leicester City conjured up a brilliant second-half performance to blow away East Midlands rivals Nottingham Forest 3-0 at the Walkers Stadium.
After both sides had hit the woodwork in an evenly-contested first 45 minutes, the Foxes struck three times without reply after the restart to strengthen their grip on a play-off place.
The visitors, who began the match with 15 clean sheets so far this season, had not conceded more than a single goal since their 3-2 win over Derby County in August.
Lee Camp needed lengthy treatment after he was hurt defending Martyn Waghorn's early corner. Waghorn then accelerated beyond four Forest players before firing wide.
Forest's first threat arrived on ten minutes when Radoslaw Majewski hit a 20-yard drive which was comfortably saved by Chris Weale.
There was an opening for the home side when a Paul Gallagher cross fell to Bruno Berner at the far post but the full-back was unable to pick out a blue shirt.
Forest went close on 31 minutes when Majewski swung in a free-kick from the left and an unmarked Robert Earnshaw ghosted in to thud a header against the bar.
The visitors continued to probe while City too often resorted to the long ball forward.
The visitors were quickly on the offensive after the restart with Majewski testing Chris Weale from 20 yards.
City almost breached Forest's defensive on 54 minutes when Michael Morrison crashed a header against the bar from a Waghorn free-kick. Matty Oakley then teed up Gallagher whose angled shot flew over.
But Leicester's growing momentum was rewarded when they took the lead on 67 minutes. Forest struggled to clear a Gallagher free-kick which was turned in to the six-yard area by Richie Wellens where Berner was waiting to smash the ball into the roof of net.
Berner was then in the thick of the action at the other end when he blocked a goalbound shot by James Perch.
Confidence flowed through the home side who went two up on 79 minutes when Gallagher curled in a superb 19-yard free-kick over the defensive wall and into the top far corner of the net.
By now Leicester were lording it over their near neighbours and their superiority was rewarded with a third on 81 minutes when Lloyd Dyer fed Berner whose low shot was side-footed into the net by Andy King from 12 yards.

Pride and Prejudice
Pride and Prejudice Chapter 35 Summary
- The next day, Elizabeth meets Mr. Darcy out on her walk. He has a letter for her.
- In the letter, he says he realizes that he was wrong about Jane not loving Bingley, but he was worried about how everyone in the family was acting. (Except Jane and Lizzy, natch.)
- He actually feels okay about what he did, except for the part where he didn't tell Bingley that Jane was in London.
- As for Wickham, the story is actually totally different: Darcy gave Wickham the 1000 pounds that the elder Mr. Darcy left, and promised him the living eventually—but Wickham wanted to study law instead, and gave up claim to the living in exchange for 3000 pounds.
- A few years later, Wickham showed up with no money, no law degree, a really bad reputation, and a burning desire to be ordained, i.e. become a clergyman—which Darcy refused.
- But Wickham had a plan B: he wormed his way into the heart of Darcy's 15-year-old little sister Georgiana and tried to elope with her. Darcy found out just in time.

A new developer gets their chance at a Dragon Ball game, with class-based fighting and eight-player battles – but is it just for anime fans? It may not be one of the most obvious licences to complain about, as far as most Western gamers are concerned, but how the video games industry has managed to get this far without a definitive Dragon Ball Z game we don't know. But it seems Japanese developers are just as inept as their Western counterparts at making superhero games, especially in this vapid new adaptation of the classic anime.

I've been away from the range too long. And from the ammo store. I must check in with both, and right soon. I need .40 to get available again. And .45 wouldn't be bad either.
My next 2 purchases, many months in the future, are going to be revolvers. 617 and a Centennial 640. If the steel snubby is too heavy for pocket carry and starts pulling my slacks donw to my ankles regularly, then I'll think about an Airweight version of same. That's an ADDITIONAL snubby. One for practice, mostly, one for carry, mostly. I lean toward the 617 as the first pick up because I have a pistol for carrying. I don't have a dedicated .22 pistol. And that's just not right. And after, with all these wheelguns in the arsenal, I can have a revolver day at the range one day and a auto-chucker day at the range the next.
Not much left to pickup after that. In the far future there is a couple long guns I want. The Ideal-For-Me Carbine, and a lefty bolty. I'll have to get creative in the gun safe to jam them in, but I got some ideas for that. It'd be nice to keep the shotgun more accessible for home defense, and that would free up a space.

Excellent choices for revolvers. I have a 317 and a 640. It's great to have the .22 for extended practice that doesn't leave you broke. I use the 640 to remain aware of the recoil issues.
Too bad your way out West, .40 is about the only ammo ALWAYS in stock everywhere here in Ohio.
