    Art exhibit
    John D.

    Here for the 40th Anniversary party of the CCA. We had ticket provided by the Center, what a great way to spend a Friday evening. The center is wide open, with a few art exhibits from local artists. There was an area cordoned off from the public for the party and from the hallway it looked fairly interesting. This means a return to CCA during regular hours for a view. There were some great metal art pieces in the patio area. It never ceases to amaze me what some people can do with what is essentially scrap metal. The art made from scrap were the most interesting to me. Each look provided a view of something else I had not seen earlier. As did looking at it from different perspectives. The evening brought out vendors with hand crafted wares that made their way beck to Albuquerque.

    I'm happy the director spoke with the audience prior to the movie that was a really cool gesture.

    It is hard not to notice this pink palace in Santa Fe, N.M. Wikipedia says the building is of a…read more"Moorish Revival style structure based loosely on one of the gatehouses to the Court of the Lions at the Alhambra in Spain." The architects who designed it were famous for their work in the Spanish California Mission style, but decided instead to "base their design on a connection between the Spanish building tradition of New Mexico and that of the Moors in southern Spain." Whatever the architectural designation, it is a beautiful building. Noteworthy is the pink colored stucco that this Masonic Lodge has as it's outer covering. Because Santa Fe is such a vibrant city and the bold colors of the desert Southwest are everywhere, the pink stucco does not seem as garish as it conceivably could. Still it caught my eye when I was on the Santa Fe City Tour and I was very taken with the unique design elements of this Lodge. Originally chartered on May 8, 1851 under the Grand Lodge of Missouri, Montezuma Lodge, from its beginning, assumed a leadership role and did everything in its power to pave the way for Masonry, in the entire territory. At this time, the New Mexican frontier was a dangerous place. The Lodge's first official Junior Warden was killed by Apache Indians just 4 months into his job. Anglo Americans in Santa Fe were rare and there was almost no women among them. Except for saloons and gambling halls, there were no social center to be founds. There were no Protestant churches; not even a cemetery for the burial of their dead. It really was the wild, wild west! But the Masonic Lodge became a civilizing factor in town. Soon the members had founded a cemetery to host funerals of their members. The Lodge brought men of like minds together, furnished them a social life and mutual protection amid the dangerous frontier. For nine years it was the only lodge in the territory. This building is also listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. It certainly contains a host of artifacts from the mid 1800's when most of the furniture of the original lodge was transported by wagon train over the old Santa Fe Trail from Missouri. Some of that furniture is still in use today! Though a little suspicious of Masons because of the Dan Brown books (Da Vinci Code, etc.) and Nicolas Cage "National Treasure" movies, I will give them the benefit of the doubt here and 5 YELP STARS for their fabulous Santa Fe Masonic Lodge.

It's open on the weekdays and houses Kit Carson's rifle, lots of antiques, a meeting space, kitchen, and some amazing historic photos. It's usually open to the public during the day and aspiring Freemasons are welcome to come by and inquire about membership from what I understand.

    Wow! Imagine my…read moresurprise, when my cell phone starts ringing, and shows an unfamiliar number (202-747-7355, if you must know)... I normally let it go to voicemail, but I was feeling frisky today, so I answered... A man comes on telling me he's from Kids First, and gives a speech about what they do. I had to find out more info on their website, but Kids first is a program within The Coalition for Quality Children's Media - they give their own stamp of approval for media to kids. He wants to know if I would watch two movies for free. Um, what? Am I a kid? Am I the best to recommend a video for a kid? If it were up to me, I'd put on "Silence of the Lambs" for junior if I were desperate to get a screaming kid away from me. I am starting to say no, and then ask him where he got my number from, he's talking and saying "Thank you, goodbye," when I'm trying to say, "Don't you dare hang up! I'm still talking to you!" And he hung up. On ME! Are you serious?? I go to their website and call back their main number. I start out advising that I just received a call on my cell phone which is on a do-not-call list, how did they get my number? She tells me they just try random numbers, and mine came up. Okay, first of all, if you are running a business (even a nonprofit), wouldn't you want to screen who you are calling? Your business is to put your approval on media, based on other people watching it? You could call some really messed up person, and they say they like it... is that wise? She then asked for my phone number so she could remove it from their list. Wait. Didn't you just say there was no list? I also told her of the horrible service from the person calling me. She didn't seem to care - hey lady, did you know that INDIFFERENCE is the #1 reason people don't do business with a business?? I will never, ever, recommend these people for anything! Anything they have to do with, I am not

This began a barrage of phone calls and emails that never ended by a very pushy salesperson. Then I realize that they are soliciting our local business for money to pay for these folders-- charging up to $900 for advertising and using our school name on the flyer! We live in a rural community and have a limited number of good-hearted businesses that were trying to meet these demands thinking that our school endorsed it. When I tried to tell Kids First that I didn't want their services-they told me that I had a two year contract with them! This is a scam company and I would advise everyone to "hang up quick" when they call.
