My wife and I had the good fortune and blessing to live in Santa Fe for a number of years, until family reasons (and, in hindsight, some half-baked planning and decision-making) took us away. We very much want to move back someday. There is a different feel there than anywhere else, and you can't beat the combination of cultures, landscape, sunsets, weather, and food. A day without green chile really is a day without sunshine. And now that I'm thinking about it, I need a Plaza Porter.

By the way, in your OP, where are the churches in the first and last photos?
