freedom I've never felt before. A madness for which there is no cure. Real magic lives in New Mexico. Believe. Nightwalking in the town of Truth or Consequences Albuquerque The Very Large Array American view A million thanks to: Brian Miller and family for putting me up and sharing your lives and stories, and Flemming for an epic road trip. Magia! Post navigation 14 thoughts on " Mad, Magic New Mexico " The tilt in the second photo really conveys the energy, vigor, and restlessness you seem to have had while there. A whirlwind. The detail and interestingly unique views you show us of typical NM (I assume, Brian?) landmarks certainly speak to your voice and your time there. Who are you, the female Ernst Haas (see 4th from bottom "Albuquerque")? I felt very free in NM. There's something really raw about the place, that I can't put my finger on. I live in a huge, wild and largely empty state myself (Western Australia is a third the landmass of continental Australia, so dwarfs NM in terms of size) but it never existed in my head the way America's wild west has -- too many cowboy stories I think! -- so finally being there made me go somewhat loco. Loved it. Ernst Haas... ha! I wish!
