Would you prefer upstairs or downstairs? Shared bath or private? Marisa and Halli will help you to choose the option best for you.

These very same issues made the community attractive to artists moving to Northern New Mexico for its thriving arts scene, particularly after Robert Redford's The Milagro Beanfield War (1988) was filmed there. Because the community had remained unchanged for so long, it still operates on some of the original Spanish land grant bylaws. For example, cars must share the roads with livestock. The community has close views of the Truchas Peaks (nearly 5,000 feet above the community) and of the Española Valley.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;From Wikipedia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6384323175751180814-6511336995205202318?l=awakentoyoursoul.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6384323175751180814/posts/default/6511336995205202318'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6384323175751180814/posts/default/6511336995205202318'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://awakentoyoursoul.blogspot.com/2010/05/about-truchas.html' title='About Truchas'/><author><name>Marisa Wolfe</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03834921980919158340</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry></feed>
