New Mexico is special. The land holds ancient secrets and human technologies with equal regard. We have high desert, mountains, lakes & rivers, spectacular dunes of gypsum pure & white, caves and crystals... cultures from all over the world living with respect for the indigenous peoples and ancient petroglyphs beside giant telescopes (quite fitting, actually!). Our horsemen and horsewomen ride Dressage, Saddle Seat, Western, Hunt Seat, Eventing, Trail or drive their horses in many disciplines. You can find most equine breeds here. We have state of the art Veterinary facilities, country doctors and open mindedness for alternative healing methods. We have hot springs and geothermal greenhouses. We have the Very Large Array listening to outer space. We have the vacuum tower solar telescope watching the sun. There are lots of solar powered homes and people that live in small mobile homes or rambling adobe mansions can sit over coffee at a cafe' talking about their common love of this land. I'm so glad that I live here. There are secrets under the ground here - human secrets and secrets held by the Earth. And sometimes I think that they are not so much secret but maybe more like sacred... like New Mexico is a sacred, enchanted place!Wednesday, February 9, 2011
