Ghost Ranch 2




Ghost Ranch was bought by Arthur Pack in 1934 and was donated to the Presbyterian Church in 1944. Georgia O'Keefe had a home on the ranch in the 40's until her death and her ashes are sprinkled here. It is now a retreat center that offers seminars and classes.We arrived at the welcome center and were offered maps of the ranch including trails. Apple trees were in full bloom and the oxide green of spring leaves contrasted beautifully with the red rock walls.









We enjoyed walking the grounds before heading back toward Santa Fe, stopping for a bite to eat along the way. I loved the changing patterns of the red rock along the way.
