Mark Bahti,
author, cultural historian and second- generation Native
American arts dealer, (See http://bahti.com/)
for an insightful exploration of New
Mexico's Rio Grande Pueblos and Georgia O'Keeffe Country. Mark
Bahti's grandfather, Arthur N. Pack, conservationist and publisher
of Nature
|
magazine, developed and operated Ghost Ranch as a
dude ranch in the 1930’s and ‘40’s when O'Keeffe arrived
and
began
to
make New Mexico her home (and Ghost Ranch was host to some fairly
interesting if taciturn guests who turned out to be the scientists
from the then-super-secret Los Alamos Lab). In 1952 Arthur Pack
moved on to |
co-found the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson,
Arizona. Mark's enthusiasm for Indian arts, history and culture is
deep and contagious! You will learn and enjoy treasured
memories!
Mark and his wife, Emmi
Whitehorse, have Bahti Indian Arts in Tucson and
Santa Fe. |

 A
bygone era crumbling... |
|
You
will savor your four delightful nights at The Inn of the Governors
in Santa Fe and Hotel Albuquerque. |
|
We've
also chosen the best of excellent and charming accommodations near some of New Mexico's
finest restaurants in Santa Fe and Albuquerque, to assure you
restful and memorable evenings...and opportunities for some
mighty fine New Mexico dining in the charming historic capitol of
Santa Fe, as well as in Albuquerque and Taos!
You'll
also enjoy the added intrigue of Georgia O'Keeffe Country,
her Santa Fe museum, and her home, and lots more!
The
Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town offers grand comfort and a
superb location for two evenings to explore Historic Old Town.
We
choose to travel as a small group (limited to just 20 guests) in comfortable,
spacious new passenger vans, where everyone enjoys their own
window seat!
This
is our most comprehensive and wonderful Indian Country program.
Not often available (not since 2010), it’s full of
new features
for 2015!

A
two block stroll from the historic Plaza (dine in or walk to many
of Santa Fe's wonderful restaurants), the Inn will quickly become
your home-away-from- home. Wood
burning fireplaces in each of our Superior and Deluxe rooms add
true Santa Fe ambiance to your accommodations. Can you
smell that cedar burning?
