Rarely do people get to live in the place they really want to be. Mostly jobs leave us stuck somewhere.

I have the remarkable good fortune to live in Santa Fe. I moved here 15 years ago when my marriage of 25 years ended -- he met someone else he decided he wanted to be with, and I said, "Goodbye, Kansas." I actually checked out several other parts of the country, but Santa Fe kept calling my name.
