What a marvelous telling. Your references are familiar ground to me. My husband and I lived in Torreon and had the Hummingbird Cafe in Mountainair in the mid-1990's, soon after we arrived in New Mexico. A good friend is buried in La Puerta. Thanks for this! Dale Harris

Once again, thank you for this -- the story and the poem. I loved both.

So relevant, meaningful, and lovely. Just today I was telling my daughter that I want to be made into rocks when it's my time...

Andi, Thank you for this post. My southern Colorado life has been happening in big ways and I haven't written a decent reply. I appreciate your reflections and your "Chocolate" poem. Mary
