Technology has changed the world right down to the very part of that world I live in myself. It doesn’t take long to gather a long list of things we would have never dreamed of in our younger days. At the top of that list for me is cell phones. I didn’t have to dial the operator for every call and wait while she connected me, but my family did have a party-line phone service and rotary dial phones. Either of those would blow a young person’s mind today. By the way, the days...

Our Leadership Portales class, organized by the Chamber of Commerce where I work, recently finished up its annual section on “History and Heritage,” dealing with everything from when Clovis hunters butchered ancient bison just north of town to the travails of our local water situation. I lead a history windshield tour around town and my favorite stop is a place nearly everyone in town has noticed but no one has a clue what it symbolizes. The little structure next to a win...

With nothing left of Thanksgiving dinner now but leftovers, inquiring minds want to know if the big Thanksgiving debate reared its head at your table. I’m not talking about Republican versus Democrat values. I’m not even talking Dallas Cowboys versus Philadelphia Eagles. What I’m referring to is did you have dressing or stuffing on your table? To some it may seem like semantics. Isn’t it the same side dish, some would ask? No, it is not and your semantics and underst...

William Bradford invited the Wampanoag tribe to the new settlement of Plymouth Colony for a feast that first fall. The Native Americans supplied five deer while the colonists added the labors of four...

Q: Where have you lived? A: Really all over. Some of my family's longest stays were in Florida, Alabama and California. For...
It’s true that the more things change, the more they stay the same. Take for instance our recently completed municipal election in Portales. Water (or the lack of it) was perhaps the most important issue in the City Council election. In our first election 124 years ago water was among the reasons that spurred an election. Since the dusty cow town sprang up along the tracks of the Pea Vine (Pecos Valley & Northeastern) Railroad in 1898 the town had struggled to fight fire. N...
