An in-service was held this week to show staff of the museum how to set up the webpage for the Salazar Rio Grande del Norte Center. I selected “Lucie’s Journey” as the name for my blog, I am excited that people visiting the site will be able to read about my journey as an intern. I am positive that whoever reads my blog will learn something new from one or more of my blog posts. I hope you will enjoy reading, “Lucie’s Journey”.

Rio Grande Box Canyon September 2016  

On Saturday I took a trip out to the Rio Grande where the river enters the box canyon and continues its journey across the border into New Mexico to take photographs for the webpage. Along the way I passed Lobatos where I grew up, the T-Bone Ranch where my dad worked for several summers, and Punche Valley where my grandpa Trujillo worked as a vacquero. As I past these places many memories came to mind. As my husband Geronimo, my son Tomas, and I stood looking at the Rio Grande we shared stories of times we had been there with my dad Enos Ruybal. I dedicate these pictures of the Rio Grande on the webpage to my dad…rest in peace dad.
