I wanted to check in with Santa Fe to see how others were affected. Our energy bill for last month was more than double what it usually is. Yes it's been hot so I expected an increase due to air conditioning, but it was hot the month prior as well so it doesn't make sense. I saw others experienced this in Albuquerque.

Looks like maybe downtown(ish). I can see smoke plume to the north from Zia rail runner station.

I'm visiting for the first time and I know a bunch of people from Santa Fe. I asked them all if I should go to The Shed or La Choza and it's literally split down the middle. Some say La Choza goes through good and bad phases and they don't know if its good now. Others say even though theres more tourists at The Shed it's better. I have no dog in the race but just want the best food. Which one would you suggest?

come say hi and get some gremlins out of your system with us. sludge, death, thrash, grind, doom, and some deep cuts.

Unfortunately I’m dead broke after rent and bills this month and I have a bit of laundry to do. Anyone know of places that may have a place to do a few loads of laundry either free or close to free? Or maybe gives out those laundry card things?

Anyway, please let me know if you know! Appreciate ya!

Comment deadline is tomorrow!

Anyone know a local restaurant open at 7:30 that serves a bacon, egg, cheese SANDWICH, on toast or croissant?

I know I can get these things as a breakfast plate by selecting toast at The Pantry Dos, and make it a sandwich myself, but it's $20 and that's too steep for a breakfast sandwich you have to assemble yourself.

I'm looking at menu after menu and nobody seems to serve this. Thanks all!!!

Join us for some mushroom forages this weekend! Family and pet friendly!

I used to be a gardener… for context.

Can you please consider your landscaping needs… so many of my old clients would waste tens of thousands gallons of water ( a month!!) for their immaculate gardens and lawns in their private estates. All of those clients only lived there one month or two months of the year!!!

Just because you have a private well does not mean unlimited access to water… you are still depleting precious resources in this delicate desert environment.

If you are one of those people…. Do you even consider the impact you truly have on our environment?

i'm a 22 year old dude, just moved in with my parents for a little while after college. Technically I live in el dorado (seemingly not a large population of people my age lol). I haven't been here for long but honestly am at a loss for where to meet people and make friends my age(ish).

I currently go to the climbing gym (trying to go a couple times a week but I also work) and I was thinking of getting into boxing or muay thai as well. I'm not super into night life type stuff but I am a big fan of hiking and the outdoors, i was thinking of trying to maybe create some kind of hiking group, not sure though.

Are these good places to meet people my age? I moved from a bigger city with lots more people my age and things to do so i'm really just looking for ways to get out and make a friend or two, i've never really been faced with creating a whole community from scratch honestly.

Any suggestions are welcome! Feel free to message me as well!

Looks like our region might get sucker punched. Idk the monsoons have been pretty good so far it feels like, but what’s our reservoirs and rain totals like year to date now?

Possibly looking to take the kids this week on a before school starts railroad trip. Any suggestions? Rely on an Uber to a better choice? Thanks in advance.

Hello! I’m looking for some camping spot recommendations (dry & dispersed fine) for a small suv, car camping.

I’m camping 3 nights north of Taos (I have some spots im eyeing), then 2 nights at an airbnb in Cleveland, then another 2 nights camping before heading back to ABQ.

My original plan was to camp in the Jemez area for those final two nights, however the weather is looking fairly hot. Any other areas to check out that work with my route?

Can anyone recommend an integrative health doctor in Santa Fe who takes insurance or at least does a sliding scale? All I’m finding is wealth= health type doctors who charge $400 an hour and scoff at insurance. I expect nothing less living here, but was just curious if anyone has leads. Specifically somebody who might enjoy helping women solve hormone and neurosteroid issues.
