Ohhh … Ojo Caliente, NM #Coffeehouse, the Red Mountain Cafe

What a darling little spot just off Highway 285 north of Santa Fe.

It was hard to resist the homemade goodies that David, the owner of 1 1/2 years offered in his bakery display.  He makes everything for the cafe on his own, and you can feel the love!

He is able to sustain his business by the patronage of the locals as this area of New Mexico’s peak season is only in the summer.  That leaves about eight months of slow business where the tourists (like me) are hard to come by.

Ojo Caliente is a town that features mineral healing pools to relax in.  If you have never been there, you really should visit.  It is a magical part of the high desert country.  We camped in the RV park walking distance to the springs for $20 a night with water and electricity.  The website for the spa is www.ojospa.com.

Hope your day is great!!
