And The fashions abound

Celebrrities walk the same path we do!  I walked right by Zahn McMaclarron, thinking I've seen him somewhere before--duh!  He has been in many movies and tv shows. 

He has played in the latest tale of Leaphole in "Dark Winds" and was also in "Longmire".  
There were two other actors with him that I've seen--David Midthunder and Eugene Brave Rock

David Midthunder

Eugene Brave Rock was a model in the Indigenous People's fashion show that we attended.

You could sit in the lobby of the La Fonda hotel and people watch for hours--

After people watching for while, we head to Santa Fe Convention  Center for one of the fashion shows--

Below is a list of some of the designers that were represented in the one show--

• 
  
• We cetainly enjoyed the runway show!  By the time we exited the convention center, the market was closing!  there were a few vendors still open but we were tired and our pocket books empty--
• if you ever have a chance to visit SWAIA, make it a point to view one of the fashion shows
