It’s difficult to describe “why Taos”…but, the light, especially in the early evening in Fall…it really is different than anywhere else. The influence of our Hispanic and Native American cultures. Taos’ part in the westward movement…read Blood and Thunder. The book skillfully describes the role of Kit Carson, and many others, in the founding of the West…a must American History read! The Gorge Bridge and the vistas that seem to go on forever…wow… especially if you come from an urban area. There’s also a spirit, or maybe it’s an energy, that you can’t help but feel after settling in for a few days. And do take the time to slow down…I think it’s a place where you can feel the true vastness of this country by simply enjoying a patio dinner at the Stakeout restaurant…the views are truly difficult to describe. But you will never forget them.
