Salinas de Abo


This ruined Spanish Colonial Mission, 1622-1677 in Central New Mexico is one of three US Park Service Monument sites. The Gran Quivera trio is located north of the White Sands Proving Ground and west of Mountain Aire, NM. This little visited site is well maintained and worth a planned excursion.

Virginia Couse and Minisa Crumbo

I recently had the pleasure of visiting and touring, again, the studio/home of famed Taos Founder artist Irving Eanger Couse during the Centennial Celebration of the Taos Founders, now in full sway in Taos, NM. His fellow founder, Joseph H. Sharp's studio is also on the grounds of this Historical Society compound, on the edge of the old adobe walled city.

I am very happy to announce fall 2015 plans to document the Historic E.I.Couse home and studio and the adjoining Joseph Henry Sharp studio. The Town of Taos is currently celebrating the Centennial of the Taos Founders Society of Artists, of which Couse and Sharp were members. Virginia Couse Leavitt and Ernest Leavitt will be taped conducting a tour of the premises as well as the current E.I. Couse Collection exhibition of J.H. Sharp etchings. The taping is scheduled for early October. It is timed to coincide with the J.H. Sharp opening. Visit the website at: http://couse-sharp.org/

SPIRIT TALK: A Book of Days


by Minisa Crumbo Halsey
We all seek power. We all want happiness. There is no shame or blame, but it's not the Neshnabek (Potawatomi) way, in serving our own highest good first and in recognizing that the highest good functions best when it is in healthy and balanced relationship with the CREATOR. SPIRIT TALK speaks to us of the first gifts of Life and Breath bequeathed to us from the Creator. These gifts, Life and Breath upon our beautiful Mother Earth and Father Sky-Sun, guide and inform the reader's life and breath through a 12 month calendar cycle.
