Summer means FUN! Come to Santa Fe, or Albuquerque NM to get a taste of the Southwest

by Mary MacIntyre

It’s a very hot night here in the office. However the outside night air is cool and windy. After a long day working, I had to go over and pull weeds at one of my PT gigs. Just before sunset, a cool wind arrived, making one believe in the chance of rain. The wind grew in force and clouds soon zoomed of around the mountain. I did enjoy the moon rise to my left, and the sunset to my right. I also love working with the land albiet a commerical zone location. The cool evening air helped a lot too.

Aching a bit, I returned home, stood and stred at another mess of weeds, all my own. So I did some more work, a relatively small section and watched the moon through drifting clouds, and a tall tree. Both my cats came out to visit, and once my black cat, Jasper, sitting on the stairs railing, was caught gazing at the nearly full moon. I never witnessed her do that before.

Here’s some news about music in town from SFBC. www.santafebrewingcompany.com
