We've moved in. New home, new experience. We live in Lone Butte, 14 miles from Santa Fe, but a world away. The house is newer, solar, well water, radiant tile floor heat. Its truly the nicest place we've ever inhabited. We live on 14 acres-feed and take care of 8 chickens, two goats, Horus and Freddy, and a peruvian horse named Corazon... "Corey."
There is a windmill at the top of the property that draws up the well water. The views are unbelievable, 80 miles out, snow and brush and a spectacular sunrise-- Amazing.
The place is coming together, feeling like home. We have moved three times in half as many years. Needless to say, we hope to be here for a while.




We have to crank up this windmill every other week to draw up our well water. So thats what those do. hmm.
Atalaya and Papa, sleepy Saturday mornings in bed.

Introducing Ranger. He looks cute, but he is cold blooded ruthless mouse killer.

Ranger mistaking Atty for a cotton candy minnie mouse... Attack!






Views of the Ortiz mountains.

Happiness, and equanimity.
