On our way back from Chimayo to Santa Fe, we drove through the village of Tesuque again. Passing through we noticed a lovely little memorial park and decided to stop by to explore.
It was such a peaceful place with huge trees, gardens, benches, bird song, and beautifully decorated memorial walls with handmade tiles placed in memory of pet friends that have passed over the Rainbow Bridge.
I just loved this note “left behind” by Pico, sharing his wisdom with all the canine friends he left behind.
There was also a worrisome note left behind on the informational mailbox about a horse that was lost. I hope that by now they have found him.
After leaving Tesuque, we entered Santa Fe and went to look for another letterbox within a wonderful park, beside a beautiful community center on the edge of the City Different.
After finding the letterbox we spent some time playing on the playground, me included!
We especially enjoyed the cool exercise trail with several stations of exercise equipment spread alongside of it, many mechanized like the real thing folks buy in the store or use at the gym. You could even adjust the tension on each machine for an easier or more difficult work-out.
It was fun and a terrific way to end our day before heading for our motel for the night.
Where we had even more fun……..
Yeh. That’s me cackling like a hen. My boys were so funny singing along with the Fruit Salad song that my daughter Jen was watching on Sprout.

I would have liked to have known Pico, and his human.
I love that stand-up teeter-totter.
What a nice pet memorial. Thanks for sharing your pictures.

That pet memorial brought tears to my eyes. What a lovely final resting place for friends.
What a beautiful memorial pet park! *sniff!
Looks like everyone had fun at the other park as well. Neat that they have an exercise course and equipment.
Your boys are too funny....lol!
The boys look like a couple of goof balls! You all made me smile!
Ahhh, sad memorial Or happy. It is tough to lose pets, for many it is like losing a human family member.
How did your kids like that playground? We have one similiar in our town but the boys have ahard time playing very long. It looks cool until you try everything out and nothing seems that fun. We have an old school park as well at my husband's workplace with one of those crazy spinning things that we use to fly off of as kids and abig tall scary slide. That is their favorite:)
I shot ya an email, in case it goes to your spam box.
I've never heard of or seen a Memorial Park like that---I'm impressed. That is a great idea. Looks like a fun trip.
What fun. Love the pet memorials.
I thought about you and Baby Doll & Apache a lot this weekend.
That's real nice.
By the way, I'm having fun playing your songs. Can't play Wildfire though. That song was a hit the year my first pony died.
Cool park, the boys crack me up. Who is the big dog in the room?
