life in santa fe



here is where we live. this classic adobe structure was built in the 1950s by the parents of our landlady who lives next door in the other half of the house.



this is our back yard.

it was snowing quite a bit when we arrived, but rather little since then. there is still quite a bit of snow in shady spots, but the sun has melted it mostly away.

i am still spending most of my time trying to remember sanskrit grammar. and there are still a lot of little jobs dealing with pots & pans, bicycle tires, and of course SHOPPING.... there are two health food stores nearby: wholefoods and a local co-op, which we joined. the town is still in post christmas recovery mode relative to the arts, so we haven't been to any concerts etc.

soon the college will re-start so we can go to dance lessons and lectures etc up the hill.

realistically as soon as classes start, i will be studying FULL-TIME so i will not desire entertainment. i have my books and my poetry to protect me...
