A&C, August 28: “Garden Variety”
Canyon Road of Yore
We walked through the El Zaguan gardens early this month and it was beautiful and lush with plants, flowers and pollinators. A definite “must-see” on Canyon Road.

More Yore
I grew up on Canyon Road and Acequia Madre. Spent all my allowance on candy at Gormley’s and Palace Grocery! Wandering in and out of galleries in awe of the art. Such a treasure. BTW, Geronimo’s was NOT the first restaurant in that location…there have been restaurants there since at least the early 70s, and probably before that (Three Cities of Spain, Alfonso’s).

That’s the Best You’ve Got?
Is that really the best thing y’all can say?

The Fork, Aug. 29: “Mystic Echos rules!”
Greetings From Michigan
Hi Fork! Just a quick thank you for keeping us up to date on the Santa Fe food scene. We moved to Michigan in June to be closer to our two kids who left the 505. Thanks to you we have too many places to check out on our visit in October.

You Weren’t There!
Since when is damage to things not violence? That goes against everything I know about violence. As a side note, since this is what you think, I guess you think that a bunch of hoodlums tearing down the Plaza obelisk is also not violence. The idea that the dumpster diver was hit in the face is also up for debate. Steve Lemon and his wife both dispute this and security videos show him rubbing his face on the pavement to perhaps create the illusion of injuries caused by the projectile. Who knows? Also, you are all assuming that this person was homeless. Do we know that for sure? Some of the folks cheerfully collecting money with signs on the medians are not homeless, as everyone assumes them to be. Siding with the underdog is always easy as a moral choice, but, as you say, you weren’t there. So making a judgment without knowledge of all the facts is generally a slippery slope. Let’s see if we can solve our collective problems without necessarily taking sides.
