Last year, I finally made it to Abiquiu for a tour of Georgia O’Keeffe’s home. It was so fascinating to see her studio with an incredible view of the valley below. The garden was interesting as she used the Pueblo method of flooding the fields once a weed. Her watering day was and still is on Monday mornings. The water flows down from a mountain source and is distributed to everyone in the village on their allotted day and time.
The inside of the house has been preserved just as she left it so there are lots of vintage appliances and electronics. She was fairly self sufficient and there were canning jars on the shelves, an herb drying room etc. We then went on to Ghost Ranch and climbed up to Chimney Rock.
