I lived in Az growing up, but I wish our family had moved to New Mexico instead.

It's a beautiful state, rich in culture and scenery. There is something special.there that you get once you've been there. It really is The Land of Enchantment.

Her ranch would be such a peaceful place to live.

I hope it doesn't get sold off to developers or anyone who is intent on doing so.

I've never considered living in NM, I think of desert.

The Northern part of the state is very mountainous. Both Santa Fe and Albuquerque have mountain ranges right outside of the city limits.

New Mexico...I've only been there once and I still have dreams about it. I was in Albuquerque and in Santa Fe, and it was just so beautiful. The air is so clean and the people are so nice. And the food is fabulous.

Kachina, thanks for sharing. If I had the money, I could easily become a recluse there. Her home and property are magnificent.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

That's nice to know. Perhaps I'll visit one day, right now I'm considering a move to either Oregon or Idaho.

When my dad retired, he lived in Phoenix in the winter and Santa Fe in the summers, where it was cooler.

After he retired from banking, he was an investment counselor. He had clients who bought second homes in Santa Fe (one was Steven Spielberg's first wife) and that convinced him to invest there too.

Don't let them kid you! New Mexico is a DESERT! We lived in Albuquerque for nine years, and believe me, the state is mostly brown!! Even the mountain flora isn't really that green, but has a rather dusty appearance. We really disliked it, and were very happy to leave when we finally did. However, if you are a desert fan, go for it!!

I now live in the beautiful, REALLY GREEN Northwest, where I belong & love every minute of it.
