I'm done dreaming....

...about New Mexico. We're actually moving to Truchas in a few weeks! We've rented an awesome old adobe there and will commence shoveling snow and making paintings. We already make paintings--but now we'll be "New Mexico artists."

Yay!

I believe I'll re-introduce myself to cross-country skiing as well.....

    Good luck with that. Truchas is a wild and lovely place. We're having planty of snow this year so pack warm clothes and your skis. You may need them ASAP!

    If you come to Taos, look me up!

      Hi Lisa, and thanks! I'll definitely look you up---I'll be in and out of both Santa Fe and Taos, seeking out galleries and, most likely, employment.

        there's a great cross country/snowshoeing area just up the road from Red River called The Enchanted Forest...lots of trails at all different skill levels.

          Hi Tony,

          In my younger days, up in Oregon, Cascades, I cross-country skied all the time. Sold my skis, though, when I came down to San Francisco for art school. And then I just stayed in CA (for way too long but that's another story) --would love to hear recommendations for ski shops or flea markets, etc. where I can get re-outfitted at a good price. I used to ski on Trak no-wax and I loved them, versatile in all sorts of snow conditions. I'd probably lean toward no-wax again, but it's been many years, Undoubtedly ski technology has changed. Anyone have a favorite x-c ski resource?

          Best,
          Trish
