Taos Pueblo

This is Taos Pueblo.  The oldest original structures still inhabited today.  All are made completely by hand of adobe and the lady said about 50-100 are lived in depending on the time of year.  No running water, no electricity.
 San Geronimo church

 Red Willow River where they get their water...the people are known as the Red Willow people
 I wish this could be the view from my backyard!
 One of the pueblo boys
 Ovens where they still make bread and pies.

 Ladder to the sky!
Site of the old church that was burnt down.  Original bell in that tower though and site of their original graveyard.  You can't see it in this picture but it's behind the wall.
