Let It Snow!

Let It Snow . . . Photo taken at Hewett Ranch.

2006 went out with a blast of winter. This storm was what we have all been praying for (well most folks) and gave the kids a chance to snowball fight and build snow forts. Lovely snow and lots of it from the year end storm last week of December 2006. Great for snow pack but unpleasant for our county road conditions.

Welcome!

Many of you already know me but for those of you who don't, I am Edwina Hewett, most folks call me George. Even though I was neither born nor raised in New Mexico, Mountainair is my home.
This blog is being offered as an alternative to the former on line publication (Country Chronicles.net) originally created to give something back to my friends and neighbors; a venue for news by the community, for the community.

We may scrap with each other from time to time, but there is a bond in this community that words can not express. We are friends. We are neighbors. We celebrate our joys and accomplishments together. We attend the same churches, shop the same stores, participate in the same organizations and community events. We support each other in times of trial and tribulation.

Mountainair has many wonderful people and positive things that happen here every day. Share your Mountainair experiences (good & bad) via this blog, and remember, if you don't have enough pride to post your name with your comments, don't leave a message!
