Genoveva Chavez Skatepark in Santa Fe
After checking out Martha Ramirez Skatepark in Santa Fe, we headed over to another Santa Fe Skatepark - the Genoveva Chavez Skatepark. This is 9,000 sq ft concrete skatepark built by Spohn Ranch back in 2017. This skatepark is a fun little skate spot with both street obstacles and a bowl. Though a little on the small side, it's a nice skatepark with a good variety of obstacles and artwork that gives it plenty of character!

Exploring Diablo Canyon in New Mexico
To get to the Diablo Canyon free camp spot we drove (slowlyyy) for seven miles down a very bumpy but well maintained road. It felt like we were driving on cattle guard the entire time. After shaking up the house real good we finally made it! We got there after dark but easily found a spot to camp. When we woke up the next morning we were greeted with an amazing view of Diablo Canyon! The canyon was gorgeous, the camping was free, and there was only on other couple at the ‘campground’.
