Meow Wolf


I celebrated my birthday by going to Santa Fe's Meow Wolf. An incredible experience! There were so many layers to this immersive art space -- a house built inside an old, abandoned bowling alley... rooms that lead to strange, trippy places... fireplace leads to some magical cave... a kid bursts through the fridge -- wait, what? Exactly! The laser harp room was my favorite -- I felt transported out to space... and then there was the mini-Turrell-inspired dome that captured my heart.











 Can you find the deer head?

 "playing" the laser harp



 You can always pick up your needle and more to another groove.
