A summer thunderstorm rolls across Pecos National Historical Park in New Mexico. Thunder in the distance, lightning along the horizon, and sunlight breaking through behind me, lighting the adobe ruins against that deep blue stormy sky. One of my favorite things about summer in New Mexico.

A traditional (I think) dancer at Sunday's Totah Fine Arts Festival in Farmington, New Mexico.

On Sunday I visited the Totah Fine Arts Festival. The Farmington, New Mexico, region is called "Totah" by the Diné (Navajo People). Totah means "between the waters." Farmington is situated where the Animas, San Juan, and La Plata rivers converge. Here's one of the dancers at the Powwow.

I got a shot of Miss Fiesta 2026 at the Hatch Chile Festival yesterday but I didn't see the Hatch Chile Queen. 🫤 Lots of very long, like 3.6m (12ft) long red chile ristras in the background! Watch for green chile photos soon!

Pecos Church Ruins, New Mexico. Centuries of history remain in these adobe walls, shaped by the people who lived here and the landscape that surrounded them.

One of those places where the past doesn’t feel quite so far away.

Now brewing: Colombia Huila Andelmo Chinchilla beans, roasted by Little Bear #Coffee in Albuquerque, #NewMexico. ☕️

I’m excited to try these, Huila has become my go-to for reliably excellent coffee, but also one that I’ve generally found it’s not worth paying more for a higher-end roaster. After trying these various options available locally in #Baltimore, I settled on Zeke’s Huila beans for our daily coffee. Maybe Little Bear will break the mold and show that these already excellent beans can be improved upon? I’ll have to see if Odd Box is roasting any, too.

Very important. New but short comment period regarding revocation of 10 mile “withdrawal” around a beautiful #NewMexico location, #ChacoCanyon. the site is sacred to multiple tribes and is geologically significant for all. Anybody may comment.

Go to the BLM Register and say you oppose revocation of the 10 mile withdrawal around Chaco Canyon. Start at the “Participate” button, top left of page. See screenshot 👇

While I was in Albuquerque in the absolute pouring rain, we were getting a hail storm in Abiquiu!

And now we’re in the very strange for #NewMexico situation where it’s a very comfortable temperature outside, but somewhat unpleasantly humid (currently 61% at 69° F / 21° C; on 3 July the humidity ranged from 4% to 13%).

Deb Haaland's life reads like it shouldn't have led to Washington, DC.

She struggled with alcoholism and got sober in 1988. She was a single mom who relied on food stamps and started a salsa company to get by. She went to college at 28, law school at 40.

Then she became one of the first two Native American women in Congress. Then the first Native American Cabinet secretary in US history, leading the Interior Department. She launched the first federal investigation into Indian boarding schools, protected millions of acres of public land, and brought tribes to the decision-making table.

Now she's running for governor of New Mexico. If elected, she'd be the first Native American woman governor in US history.

A 35th-generation New Mexican and member of the Pueblo of Laguna, she just published her memoir 'A Voice Like Mine.'

Representation isn't symbolic. It changes who gets a seat at the table.

This amazing and unusual project is looking for a new home.

If anyone in the desert Southwest of the US has an interest in working on finishing a flyable, 12-foot model #zeppelin #airship, this #typewriter acquaintance of mine is looking to rehome his project!

His contact info is in the video description.

Are there any #Queer / #Trans people in #NewMexico on here? It's the next closest "safe" state to where we currently are (Colorado) and it's *A LOT* cheaper than here. The cost of living in CO is make it impossible to get back on our feet.

Also, does anybody in #NM have any housing groups or resources for finding potential roommates?

White-crowned Sparrow
Alameda, NM

There was a loud chorus of white-crowns in the quince thicket this morning. I suspect they will move north for the season early this year.
