504. Chama River, Rio Grand

New Mexico has many lovely places and things to see and if you're in Abiquiu to see Georgia Okeeffe's house, then drive a few miles out and you'll come to this spectacular view of the Chama River which is part of the Rio Grand.  Where clear water mixes with muddy water on this day; the Cottonwood trees were beginning to bud  creating an olive/spring green color.  There's no sky bluer than here in New Mexico that I've found and the red and orange hills against it are such a compliment to each other.  Scrubby sagebush trees abound with pinion pine dotting the landscape.
