Dorothy Has Friends in Santa Fe

April 2, 2010 by · 8 Comments

Fast forward to the present. We are here! And we are queer! No longer feeling the need for secrecy, Friends of Dorothy gatherings have become a huge social network across the globe and its presence in Santa Fe is no different. The group meets once a month on Friday’s at 6pm onwards and is attended by 200 – 250 members of Santa Fe’s gay community.

It is hosted by a different venue each month including such places as Ecantado Resort, Las Posada, Inn and Spa at Loretto,  Santa Fe Capital Grill, Bishops Lodge Resort & Spa just to name a few. The hosting company generously supplies the group with an array of appetizers.

In the winter months we enjoy the warmth of the roaring fires inside while watching the snow gently fall on Santa Fe. During the summer months we gather outside sipping cocktails while watching the gorgeous Santa Fe sunsets magically appear before setting behind the mountains. Finally the clear night overhead gives way to millions of stars which is not to be missed.

Friends of Dorothy is a great opportunity to meet new friends, see old friends and connect with Santa Fe’s gay community in a beautiful setting.  If you are visiting Santa Fe and want information on attending  or for more information on enjoying the Gay Life in Santa Fe CLICK HERE

They have put together the first ever Men’s Only Dance.  So let’s pack the house and spread the word.

Events: Winter in Santa Fe

January 19, 2010 by · Leave a Comment

My drivewayWhat a great day in Santa Fe as I have awakened to five inches of snow on the ground. And I am sure even more fell up on the ski mountain. Yes, Santa Fe has a ski resort! People are often surprised to find this out.

What most people don’t know is that Santa Fe has a true four seasons. July is our hottest month with an average temperature of 85 degrees and lows at night in the 50’s which is absolutely wonderful. Autumn and spring are just as they should be as they help transition the change of seasons and winter is picture perfect.

We receive a good handful of snowfalls in town each year of 2-4 inches, just enough to be picturesque but at the same time just sufficient that it is gone in a day or two.  Of course up at the ski basin they receive much more for us skiers to enjoy all ski season long.

Ski Santa Fe is only 15 miles from the Plaza and makes for a convenient day of skiing. Offering an assortment of beginner, intermediate and expert runs, there is plenty of fun for skiers and snowboarders of all abilities to enjoy the gay life in Santa Fe.

For enjoying breaks, there is the inside and outside grill located at the base of the mountain as well as a rustic, cabin “bar and grill” named Totemoff’s located up the mountain right on the slopes themselves.

It’s the drinks though, that make Totemoff’s the place to kick a bit of snow off the old boots, loosen those bindings and take in the scenery. It’s a great place to meet some new friends from out town and hang out with your local friends as well.

It is here that everyone — skier, snowboarder, native Santa Fean, import or tourist — mixes and mingles over their love of winter and the need for a little warmth. So, when you don’t find me out showing real estate to buyers or helping sellers list their house, you will most assuredly find me hanging out with my friends skiing a few runs.

And when I need to warm up you will find my enjoying a “Totemoff’s Special,” a concoction of hot chocolate, Copa de Oro coffee liqueur and Wild Turkey as we sit in front of the roaring fire. This not only takes the edge off but, consumed at nearly 11,000 feet, makes it a bit easier to catch an edge on the way back down the mountain.

Think snow!!!

December 8th, 2009:   “Speak Softly and Carry a Small Stick: The Art of the Conductor” Tuesday, December 8th, from 5:30pm to 7pm

Imagine that you are sitting in an audience, watching a penguin with a baton, standing in front of 114 other penguins, all with musical instruments in their flippers. Suddenly, you are the penguin at which all of the others are staring. Now imagine you are standing in front of a 114-piece orchestra with nothing but a small white stick in your hand. What next? Do you scream, stamp your feet, or close your eyes and simply pray?

Join us in discovering just what the person behind the baton really does! Our presenter, Roy Rogosin, has a unique perspective for a conductor. He has conducted for motion pictures, television, celebrities (including Johnny Mathis and composer Michel Legrand), the stage…and the White House. He has conducted internationally in Europe, South America, and Asia, as well as throughout the United States.

Join us for what we know will be an informative, fun (and probably gossipy) explication of “The Art of the Conductor.” We are delighted that this will be the first guild program to be presented in collaboration with RainbowVision Santa Fe at RainbowVision, 500 Rodeo Road , Santa Fe 87505 Guild members may attend free of charge. RainbowVision residents: $5; Non-members: $10 To reserve your seat, RSVP by December 1st (as space is limited) to: EducationVP@santafeoperaguild.org or (505) 629-1410 ext. 11 One-year Guild membership is available at the door: $35 (single); $60 (double) A no-host cash bar will be open during the meeting.
