Dan typoed the name of the city - he went to Santa Fe, New Mexico... The
adobe buildings are Pueblo Indian style... I'm guessing he took that shot
at the Taos Pueblo ... but there are other possibilites in the area -
I'm just thinking that it surely must ahve been a destination for his
groupat some point on the weekend...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taos_Pueblo
Taos, New Mexico is about 60 miles north of Santa Fe, which is the
capitol of New Mexico. Santa Fe and the town of Taos have many adobe
buildings..
Taos is quite a tourist town, for skiing in the winter.. it is known as
an artist's Colony going back to the early 20th century and the Taos
pueblo is
a must see for a visit to the area...
Here is a shot of mine from the town Taos from 2001.. it had been the
home of Matriarch of the artist colony back in the 1920, Mable Dodge,
when DH Lawrence was among thoses in residence. Artist Georgia O'keefe
also lived not far away. Her home is a BEd and Breakfast now.

Also, Ansel Adams' famous photo"Moon over Hernandez New Mexico" was
taken a bit north of Santa Fe...

I've been away for several days, on a trip to Santra Fe, with a group of
my college classmates and their spouses.
There was a lot to see, and to photograph. Most relied completely on
their
smart phones. Of the 80 plus in attendance, only 2 of us used real
cameras. This is the other one:
