A Ristra And Snow

Next to the front door of my cabin, a ristra.

Ristras are seen in New Mexico and southern Arizona. Strings of chiles hanging out to dry, for cooking and eating. Or simply to be used as a decoration. That’s the case here. A beautiful decoration representing a favorite part of this country, said to bring good health and good luck.

Very special to me.
