At the southern end of the Moreno Valley lies Black Lake, New Mexico, a quiet natural lake where Paulette and I watched for elk, waterfowl, wild turkeys and black bears. It also became Montana for portions of the classic Lonesome Dove miniseries.
I headed north with an old chainsaw for my son and cameras for myself. What followed was a rainy September journey through the Rio Grande Gorge, Taos Canyon and Angel Fire, where autumn aspens and a remarkably calm flock of wild turkeys turned an ordinary errand into a very special day.
