Taos Orientation with Mya

Wally and Mya just left for two weeks of camping north on the lakes near the Canadian border.  Yesterday was a super one - I had a "Taos moment" they call it when at a consignment shop named "Pieces" I found pottery dishes from my wedding breakfast pattern - all of which had been broken for several years now and I had been hoping to buy some of - 6 plates, 6 saucers, 4 cups of the Stangl fruit pattern which I got nearly 60 years ago - all for $16!  I am overjoyed!  Of course, lots more wonderful bargains are still waiting there.  Then Mya continued escorting us around to other places we need to know about - to a delightful lunch at the Dragonfly - to rock shops - to two different shopping malls of all kinds of delightful local art work - and to a spa with everything from weight rooms, tread mills and reclined bikes, zumba to old folks yoga, swimming pool, two hot tubs, etc. ...So now we know how to use this town.  We've found the "whole foods" store called Cid's, labyrinths await us, and even WalMart where I bought a camera so soon I can include some photos on my posts - forgot mine - so we've been oriented well.  This morning we're off to the Farmer's Market and a palm reader, not what one would normally find at a Farmer's Market - but remember, this is Taos!
