On Saturday, September 27th, Emily, Patty, Emily's Mom Terry, Grammy, and friend Deborah all went to dinner and to see a play produced by a local theatre company called Mother Road. Terry and Patty really hit it off, not only did they share a meal at dinner and eat off the same plate, they were even finishing each other's sentences! The play was held in an old gas station/garage that has been transformed into a performing space called "The Filling Station." The set was an Irish Pub in Ireland and all of the actors did a great job faking their accents! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. After the play we went to Emily's favorite Gelato place and kept Grammy out almost until midnight!!

On Monday, September 27th we took a trip to Wagner's Farm in Co
rrales, NM. It was a beautiful Fall day but it was extremely warm out!
This is a picture of chile ristras, long strings of chiles made for decoration. Green chile is a less ripe, and sweeter tasting, red chile. Yum!
We bought a half bushel of green chile's and they roasted them right there for us. They use propane and these metal barrels to keep the chiles moving so they don't burn.
It smelled sooo good! This is a GREAT part of Fall that I had no idea about until now! Then they put the warm chiles into a large trashbag and you take them home, peel them, and put them into ziploc bags and freeze them. Now we can have fresh green chile all winter long because chile season only comes once a year!!
Me, Terry, and Grammy waiting for our chile!
Terry had to leave Thursday, October 2nd and neither of us wanted her to go. We had so much fun during her visit! Bye, Terry! Come back soon!!
We extend an inivtation to anyone who wants to come visit. We get lonely. :)
