Taos Observations (pg 2.)
It only gets better... I've found a small community just west of Taos called Carson and talk about a hoot.. I ran across a couple of women from New Jersey at a yard sale and we keep crossing paths. well, I was driving around out in the boonies and I ran across them near the local market/deli (the one the totes a skull and crossbones flag in front). Well, they told me this place had the best hero sandwich around (of course the closest anything is 17 miles away). So I go in and there sits the owner and a poet.. yes.. a poet... well, I decide to order a hero sandwich and sit down to eat it there.. because I just have a feeling this is gonna get better... well , it did.. seems the poet has had a lot of computer issues getting a new computer and having lost alot of old data. I offered to recover it for him. We went back to his place.. a nice log cabin with no running water or normal electricity (he has (4) 25 watt solar panels to run his laptop and a couple of lights.. He did however have a phone line which I found to be odd 4 miles down in "the carson" , down a dirt road that I really was glad I had a 4 wheel drive Jeep.. well, I took his old laptop drive home and brought him his data the following day. He has since bought me lunch for 3 days .. and thats good with me... I like being bought food...
I have since found that The Poco Loco (the name of the store in Carson) also offers on Fri Sat and Sundays Real honest to heaven New York Style Thin Crust Pizza .. and It is a little bit of heaven.. it really tastes like the pizza in New York..
There is a place on the south side of Taos that Has a Big Donut Shop sign out front.. The odd part is that they don't actually sell any donuts.. they are the only place in town that I have found wheat pancakes.. I only went in because I was getting my jeep serviced at the jeep dealer across the street and I was looking for coffee.. I found a resturant that actually was called Rickey's .. and they have a nice display case for donuts but they don't sell any.. hummmm
And it never seems to end.,, I went into a local tree hugging cafe/coffee shop that you can get hot tea but not iced... (don't even ask)... okay here is the sign I saw when I walked in..
