We decided to take a day off from traveling and enjoy Santa Fe, NM and the Santa Fe National Forest for camping and fishing. Both Santa Fe and the forest were spectacular. The route to Santa Fe was a Pre-1937 route of the Route 66. After 1937 the route was changed to by-pass Santa Fe. Santa Fe is a wonderful city with so much amazing art and Indian culture. We took the City Tour to learn more about the city and it's heritage. Then we took off to camp and fish in the Santa Fe National Forest. We just couldn't believe that camping in the forest was totally Free for a campsite right on the stream!! It was a great side trip and both Jay and I even caught some fish!!
