Acequia Goat
by Cathy Carey
This little goat wearing a turquoise necklace, is seen by the Acequia Madre just off Canyon Road, the gallery district in Santa Fe. The acequia's are the community operated Spanish irrigation canals that flood the gardens once a week. Acequia Madre means "Mother Ditch". The rain pours down the mountains after a storm and fills the canals with the bubbling water of life.
