Actually New Mexico should be known as the Land of Enchiladas, but years ago after the pony express rider had crossed the Rio Grande and Pecos Rivers, the ink on his dispatch had run. Folks in Washington D.C. were uncertain what was written so they settled on "Land of Enchantment". Have not been to Magdalena in a while, but the Golden Spur is likely the only place that serves alcohol there. Hope all of you nomads have good travels on your return to Baja. Sold my place in the Orchard in July. (whew)

I may be in a couple of the pics at the spur, if you check the old timers section...I would be the handsome fellow with the beautiful girl ...

"Land of Enchantment" is what the signs say, but we call it the "Land of Entrapment". Very heavy State Police presence here, good and bad. Word to the wise, do NOT speed here either... anywhere.

And Chuckie, I re-stocked the Vermouth.
