It's a quiet byway of northern New Mexico. Ocate, a small community in the high plains at the edge of the mountains, west of Wagon Mound, north east of Mora. The Ocate citizens see the eastern side of the Amola Ridge and my Mora valley sees the western side. Ocate is close as the crow flies, but takes time to drive to.
The junction is state highway 442 with state highway 120. 120 to the left goes to Black Lake, then Angel Fire on the Enchanted Circle. To the right, it goes to Wagon Mound. The back of the store shows in the first picture up at the junction ahead. This store has certainly been weathered by time.
