Oct 7, 2015 | Contributor: Cynthia Dial I am no novice to Santa Fe. Over the years I’ve visited multiple times, yet I remain impressed at its lists of notable residents.

Oct 16, 2014 | Contributor: Susan Kime Many great writers have defined, as best as they could, the poetry and mystery of Santa Fe, New Mexico, and even more artists have called it home (George R.R. Martin, Cormac McCarthy, Georgia O'Keeffe, to name a few). It is the oldest capital in the United States and at 7,000 feet above sea level, it is also the highest. The early cold and the bracing, high altitude air, as D.H. Lawrence once wrote, makes "the stars snap like distant coyotes, beyond the moon." ... Read More |

Aug 5, 2013 | Contributor: Susan Kime Experiencing Santa Fe combines past and present, old and young, ancient history and intense immediacy, liberation and invigoration. It is also where I spent my honeymoon nearly three decades earlier. I had not returned, even though we lived nearby for many years, so the memories of Santa Fe remained clear as the remembered pink sunrises over the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.... Read More |
Oct 3, 2012 | Contributor: Katherine Bond There's a new trend in travel simmering across the States: luxury farm stays. That is, splendid and charming accommodations right on property where grapes and cabbage grow and goats and cows graze. It's dining so close to the farm that you could take your fork, lean out the window, and pluck the berries for the house-made granola. It's rooms so cozy and cared for that every soap, linen, and candle is made just steps away. I couldn't be more pleased.... Read More |

Jan 26, 2012 | Contributor: Ruth Mitchell Walking through the Plaza in Santa Fe during the August Spanish Market, I was greeted by a small girl with a big smile. “Hi,” she said with a big toothy grin. "Hi there," I mirrored her enthusiasm. I had just met Marissa Chavez, aged 10. I thought she was helping her mother who stood in the background. But then wasn’t I in the youth section of the market? The sun shone and it was a very pleasant 80 degrees. I dreaded going back to 100 plus degree temperatures at home.... Read More |
