High Mountain Doings

From 8200 feet along one side of the Upper Arkansas River Valley in central Colorado, my blog is about many things: travel including river and bicycle trips, and other experiences as well. The focus is on photography, not lots of text.

Things For Sale

An Afriquia gasoline station. There were many of these.
Offhand, I don't remember whether there were other brands too.
Note here evidence of the Moroccan tendency to have numerous plants (if not flowers) around. Green does look good on the desert.

Bill looks for a rug. (I don't remember where this was--it was the second rug shop we visited. Do any tripmembers know?)

Rugs in Ouarzazate

Ozte is a center for the making (and the selling) of a large variety of colorful and apparently high quality rugs. We heard a presentation about the rugs, in a rug shop, but I didn't buy one because it would have been a fair amount of money, I didn't know where I'd put a rug, and I didn't know what size I should get. At least one tripmember bought a rug, and I hope it fits right into his house.
