ENDLESS SUNSHINE ......
You ever notice how summer just walks in, all bright and cheerful, like it owns the place? Even with temperatures soaring, there's something undeniably magical about this time of year. The monsoons decided to show up fashionably late, the hay's been cut and baled and Steve and I are gearing up for our biennial show, "Side by Side", at Wilder Nightingale Fine Art right here in Taos. Mark your calendars. September 2nd is the day it all kicks off! So, if you've got a hankering for some art and a good time, swing by the opening reception or just pop in for a visit.
