Entry 010 // High Road
.
Location // Chimayo, NM
.
Field Log // Like a gust of autumn wind, Betty is off again up the High Road to Taos. Chimayo is a gem of this scenic byway, a fertile valley scattered with lovely little chapels. Thousands of hands have come together to build altars, piece by piece. They are exquisite, like visual hymns of this vibrant culture.

Entry 009 // Noir
.
Location // Santa Fe, New Mexico
.
Field Log // Betty is home in Santa Fe, and briefly settled into the life of a town car. How strange to see this majestic yellow beast, so accustomed to the boundless frontier, tucked into tidy parking spots and rolling through quiet residential streets. Resting in the blue city shadows, she is already planning her next #bettyventure.

Entry SFE11 // Back
.
Destination📍// Santa Fe, New Mexico
.
Field Log // When we were outward bound to California, so long ago, the sunset filled our windshield and we knew that this shimmering ether was our true destination. What is the Pacific but a seam tenuously linked to the mysterious beyond? On the way there, it was easy to imagine our little Astro Van tumbling over the edge of the world like a comet headed to forever. Now the fiery dusk is but a wisp in our side mirrors. You always have to return home.

Last we saw our pal Oliver Vegas, we were roaming the American West together in a big yellow van called Betty. Here’s one of his wildest captures from the truly treacherous Death Valley.

Entry SFE09 // Meander
.
Location // Horseshoe Bend, AZ
.
Field Log // Horseshoe Bend is humbly categorized a meander, but we think it moves more like Betty: in great, breathtaking swings. We are one state away from home, but this meandering, swinging, zig zagging adventure is far from over.

Entry SFE09 // Echo
.
Location // Bryce Canyon, UT
.
Field Log // Everyone knows Arches and Zion, but Bryce Canyon National Park is so remote that far fewer visitors make it here each year. As we meander through great trenches striated with red, orange and yellow, the occasional wanderer passes us, their wide eyes echoing the wonder in our hearts.
