  • Enchanting Stories of New Mexico - New Mexico's 1916 military airplanes and March winds
    2024/11/07

    When I go outside in Las Cruces I look up and see airplanes. Little ones, big ones, those with propellors or jet engines along with helicopters. In 1916, airplanes came suddenly to New Mexico. They didn’t fly here, they took a train from San Antonio, Texas to Columbus, NM. The Army’s first military airplanes found out the effect of New Mexico’s spring winds.

  • Enchanting Stories of New Mexico - Arizona made out of New Mexico
    2024/10/24

    New Mexico and Arizona have an entwined history. They started as one entity, the U. S. Territory of New Mexico in 1850. In that entity from Hobbs to Yuma and northward was all New Mexico. New Mexico and Arizona became separate territories in 1862 and then states in 1912 within six weeks of each other. The history of Arizona and New Mexico are connected.

  • Enchanting Stories of New Mexico - Old and Future Chile Tastes
    2024/10/08

    I want to talk about the chile of old such as the Old West Southwestern chile and then the future of chile. I even want your views on what combination of flavors that isn’t being done right now could be the next big chile innovation since chile is now part of a many flavors such as Hatchup, the Hatch Valley red chile and ketchup. I will confess that I put green or red or the blend of green and red chile on almost everything except Jello. Who knows? Chile Ice Cream is something new that I see and green chile milkshakes. So what flavor is next? I’ll get your input in a little while but first let me talk about chile of the Old West.

  • Enchanting Stories of New Mexico - A little this and that about New Mexico
    2024/09/26

    I spend some mornings at a wonderful coffee shop telling stories. Most of the stories might be true. It is lovely to drink coffee and laugh with friends. Without water we wouldn’t have coffee nor green chile. I love the Rio Grande. Today’s podcast has a little of this and that stories. When you hear people talking about how the West was won, it was not with guns, though they were important. Rather, it was very precise technology that tamed the West, and that technology is still in use. For hundreds of years the vast wild lands of New Mexico had plenty of lizards, snakes, deer, rabbits and coyotes but nothing that could be shipped somewhere else for money. What could use the land commercially were cattle and sheep. Then came two inventions: windmills and barbed wire. Oh, yes, and railroads so when going to market the cows didn’t walk off their pounds or take twenty cowboys a month to get there. What made the difference in ranching was only a hundred or so feet of dirt away from the thirsty cows, sheep and people. That first great invention was windmills.

  • Enchanting Stories of New Mexico - The Hidden Las Cruces
    2024/09/24

    I am told that an Iceberg is 10 percent visible and 90 percent below the water line. Las Cruces hasn’t seen an Iceberg in forever, except in Hollywood movies. What is the commonality of Icebergs and Las Cruces and most towns in New Mexico? What you see, the roads, buildings and houses are only a part of the entire story of building Las Cruces. When I was a little boy, my grandfather’s ranch south of Carrizozo, NM was what would be considered primitive because it had kerosene lanterns for light and a wood stove for cooking and heat. Water was pumped by a windmill on a hill and put in a tank to gravity flow into the house. There wasn’t electricity other than batteries for the radio and no propane, yet. It was 30 bumpy miles on dirt roads to the nearest paved road in Tularosa. When we hit the pavement, everyone would say, ah! I was very lucky to experience cleaning the lantern chimneys every Saturday and reading by kerosene light while listening to a radio powered by batteries. That was 1954 and the Rural Electrification Act finally came to the ranch, and they had electricity for the house and the water wells.
