This past summer, in July, I went on a short trip to Taos with a friend. Camping in the area at designated sites was nearly impossible because, it would seem, that everyone else in New Mexico had the same idea. Instead, after desperately searching for hours, we illegally set up our tent at the top of a gorge that would later reveal itself to be a popular launch point for balloons.

Yep, they could use a refresher on communication skills and how to use email as well.

Everything about this place is a wreck. I assumed this was just a traffic court window having been here years ago to contest a traffic citation.

> For lawyers and judges who frequent the court, the small lobby, short hallways and a shortage of meeting rooms mean not only a crowded space at peak hours, but also a security risk.

It's quite windy today, but warmer than the past couple of days. This is only temporary though, because the next few days are going to be much colder with some snow on Thursday.

#PennedPossibilities 861 — Has your MC ever committed a crime? If so, what have they done?

Not the current batch. But the MCs from my first incomplete novel, who show up as side characters in my WIP, have committed multiple felonies, chiefly violations of Japan's weapon laws, plus assault, battery, and any number of crimes of violence.

Sister Giotto

The Sagrada, Sunday, December 14 at 04:00 PM MST

A Gallery of Vintage Design on Instagram: "New exhibit: the work of Giotto Moots In the 1960s Moots brought the sacred arts to Albuquerque, NM. After working as an art school dean in Italy through the mid century she set her heart on the deserts of the American Southwest. By working with famed architect Antoine Predock to create artist residences and a hundful of Domican nuns to handmake thousands of adobe bricks to build Our Lady of Guadalupe chapel, a vibrant art school campus emerged. The location, now called Patio Escondido is a registered historic site. Filled with community, intention and care, the spirit of Sagrada Art Studio lives on. We are delighted to celebrate a homecoming. Join us for a special showcase of Giottos handcarved blockprint artwork and understand the iconography that inspired her.
