It's a sorting through, backing up, organizing type of day....

Over the last few months I have really been going through all my old files, both on the computer and in my file boxes. As a writer, an artist and a prolific amateur photographer....I have a lot of files to sort through.
 One of the fun things about sorting through and organizing old pictures is that you get to relive a moment, even if it is just for a minute....That is me drawing at a pueblo in New Mexico just over 6 years ago. It was an amazing 10 day trip I took with another artist friend....
 We loved everything about it. We stayed in Chimayo, between Santa Fe and Taos and we also spent a few days in Taos. Chimayo was our favorite, though our day trips were also pretty spectacular.
 We had to visit Canyon Road and see the galleries and buy a brush or two at the art store Georgia O'Keefe frequented...
 We couldn't stop oohing and ahhing over the scenery....
 But the wild horses we saw everywhere were even cooler than the rock formations....
Though these red rocks on the way to the Ghost Ranch were pretty amazing...

Now that I am getting all these things in order I have to decide how to save them. Do I get them printed? Make small memory books? Leave them on a thumb drive? I'm thinking books....but haven't decided yet...

What would you do?

I adore the rust-colored mountains near Taos and the terrain in Georgia O'Keeffe territory!

I suppose organizing your photographs into a book is a good idea.
