This is a view of the Perdernal (made famous by Georgia O'Keeffe's paintings) as we were coming down off our Chimney Rock hike. After she passed away her ashes were spread on the top of the mountain. And here is the meaning of my title. If you look to the left you will see Abiquiu Lake. Then just to right of that lone branch in the middle of the shot is where I own 5 acres of land. My dream is that one day I will build a small vacation home on this land with large window that will face the Perdernal.
One another note I did play with "Picnik" after reading a few other blogs and tried darkening the edges a little. It's a fun little too and free right now since they are closing the site in April.

ce paysage est magnifique
A great capture! Pretty as a Picture!!
This my friend seems like a doable dream! From the pic I can certainly understand your dream! Five acres with a view like that, I do believe you have found your nirvana!
It seems to be really cold !
A very special place, Randy. I can see why you would want to spend time here. :)
It's cool to start the week thinking about your dream. ;-)
what a view that is, and keep striving for that dream! i am bummed about picnik closing but have noticed that google has the same tools that i use from picnik on their photo editor. hopefully google won't go and make it complicated!
That is so gorgeous!
Thumbs up Randy!
Lovely! Build your house, friend!
And your dream will come true!
'Tis a beautiful scene. Is there a golf course nearby?
It would be really neat if you could have that window frame the mountain like a picture. I've seen that done in some of the houses in Sedona. What an awesome place to own land...hope your dream comes true!
Your picture is like a painting, and a great one!
Yes, NM is definitely the Land of Enchantment!
What a beautiful view from here. And, what a great dream you have. I'm rooting for you to make it come true.
A dream to strive for!! A terrific dream, Randy and I hope that you achieve it sooner than later. But hurry, I want to visit you there, and I'm not getting any younger!!
PS. A new header? I like it!!
Forgot to mention your new header pic. Very nice!
What a fabulous spot to own 5 acres Randy, it does look like a dream location, I can envisage you having many enjoyable vacations there. p.s. my husband would be green with envy about that spot!!
oh, congrats on the 5 acres!!! that is something to look forward to!!! nothing more valuable than land. and the water to feed it...
AWESOME! Great picture Randy. The new banner is wonderful as well.
I like your dream. Someday soon it will be a reality for you. Great header photo too. You are really spiffing things up here on SFDP.
Looks like a great place to build a home!
I hope when you have your dream home- you will invite us to come see.;) That is a magnificent view! Lovely photo too. Happy Monday Randy.=)
beautiful and generous landscape...
Wonderful view and well composed shot.
Such a beautiful view!
Nice dream Randy! I hope that it comes true.
Ohmigosh you own some beautiful property!
Hi Randy, I've been lurking here for a few months enjoying New Mexico through your lens. I'm very much hoping to move there next September after an attempt to do so last fall didn't work out (but I did at least get to explore for a week!)
Love your dream of a vacation home! Have you ever seen the "Tiny House" blog? I find it really inspiring to see what people have built for themselves.
Wonderful dream in a beautiful area. I have spent time in Abiquiu and wish all your dreams come true.
With the exceptions of a few functions, Picnik was always free... I'm going to miss it...
As for your heaven, will you throw a party once you've built your haven? :-) Gorgeous.
Snow and desert, what an fashinating combination...
Beautiful Randy... and a wonderful dream! I hope it comes true in the not-to distant future! :)
