Thanks for all your good information! I appreciate, in particular, your explaining the Taos-Santa Fe differences. I've been to Albuquerque and Santa Fe, and experienced that high altitude effect -- Got drunk on my first Marguerita! Oh well -- I was warned.

I agree with you regarding Santa Fe's reputation for 'high rent's'. Coming from the east coast, I know what rents are like in cities like Boston, New York. and Washington D.C, and those in your area are modest by comparison.

It certainly sounds like you're happy and living the good life -- I hope to be doing the same soon, maybe in Taos or Santa Fe. Thanks again for your great post.
