Matt's New Mexico (Formerly Airstream) Adventure

My uncle has been in real estate in Santa Fe since the 90’s. I’ve lived in Santa Fe since 2006. I can give you my uncle’s number, he knows everyone here…
He has a house in Santa Fe and Dixon, NM (halfway between Santa Fe and Taos)
In the right spot, this place is magic

Standard & Strange is here, but they don’t have Iron Heart. With Covid and all, tourism and the businesses that support it are tenuous. There aren’t many folk here comparatively. I haven’t bought anything from a brick and mortar since 2010.

I’m hoping for a hiring boom at just about the time we’ll be getting close to settling. My wife’s a teacher so she should be able to find something. I’m not looking for a serious career, just something to help pay for groceries and to strengthen my case for getting a motorcycle. Ideally I’d like to sit behind a counter and listen to music whilst selling books, folding shirts or pouring beers.

Belfry Brewery in Cottonwood. Outside dining! $22 to sample all their beers, 13 and n the menu. Getting a burger with cheddar and a peanut butter-nutella-bacon-sauce. The older white people behind us are conversing about “I just don’t understand why they need to make a big deal about it. Internment camps aren’t so bad. Like, couldn’t they go home?” ???

I can't speak for the other Texans, but life is pretty much back to normal for me. We had a few days of sporadic power courtesy of rolling blackouts, but nothing dangerous. Today was sunny and close to 80, so normal for late February in San Antonio.
Thoughtful of you to ask, by the way. Thanks.

I'd like to introduce the old farts to a internment camp in the high desert and see how they like it.

@Chris happy to hear it!
@steelworker we are constantly surprised by some of the casual conversations we hear when we’re out. Generally speaking we’ve deduced that most people have no regard or a shocking lack of information about the environment, factually based news media, the validity of race or gender based bias, the Constitution or health and public safety. But they’ve all gotten this far so maybe I’m the one who’s been doing it wrong.

This is the head fuck from time to time.. What if you/we/I are the ones who got it all wrong? All this time they've been right and we've been blind? Then I realize the worst case if we're wrong the world/planet ends up better of, so worst case, there's only an upside.. makes you wonder how rare and difficult a shared truth is.

When @Alex was about 8 or 9 I took him to Orlando to do the amusement parks. The Ponderosa all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet was how we started each day. The next year we went with @Madame Buttonfly and Alex insisted on covering Paula's eyes until we were inside, so that she could get the full reveal….. I'm not saying anything negative about the clientele, but it was been known in our family ever since as Pond-life-erosa....I have to say, most of them were Brits....$3.99 will do it...
