We've been in southern New Mexico for almost a year and we love living in the high desert. We've been together seven years. Carl has recently taken up pottery, and has proven to have a real talent for throwing mud. He also loves landscaping, house shows on HGTV, old cars and car auctions (Barrett-Jackson, Russo-Steele), nature walks, botanical gardens, three oversized mugs of coffee every morning, playing with our two "canine americans" (spoiled rotten by the way...all his fault!), good friends, dinner parties and quiet evenings at home. John shares in the love of the two pups, botanical gardens, nature walks, but prefers tea to coffee, can't tell the difference, most of the time, in old cars, and rather throw mud at Carl (in good fun) than on a wheel. John also loves books, everything from astrophysics to metaphysical spirituality to mystery-crime fiction. One day he plans to write something suitable for download on Amazon.

We would love to find other monogamous couples for friendship. We travel frequently to Colorado, Texas, Arizona and Nevada.
