It is amazing the way Santa Fe embraces Gay Pride week. In addition to the pride parades, happy hours and networking events is the Lamy Gay Pride train and as usual this year’s was a huge success. We had a blast and wish you could have been there. We know you would have really enjoyed it. All the gay boys and girls were there for the fun. Each train car had its own bar for drinks. Once in Lamy, we departed the train for a BBQ, bonfire, and live music. Afterward we boarded the train for the return trip to Santa Fe where they converted one of the cars into a dance floor playing songs like “I Will Survive” and we danced and swayed with the train! Hopefully we will see you there next year. For more information on living the Gay Life In Santa Fe email us at BanhamRoss@PruSantaFe.com
With the silhouette of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains creating a majestic backdrop, the curtain rises on another day from heaven. Sapphire skies are lit by the sun, framing a scene of pure magic. As I walk out my front door I let the spirit of this great land wash over me. My partner and I moved to Santa Fe on New Year’s Eve 2003 and didn’t know a soul. We traded a metropolitan area of over 6 million people for this small little town of just over 60 thousand people. So of course we thought we would be set for a quiet little retirement in the high dessert. Nothing could have been further from the truth.
In addition we have assisted many couples in the past year purchase 2nd homes in Santa Fe with the intent to retire in the next five to ten years. They have come from coast to coast including California, Chicago, Texas, Pennsylvania and D.C. and aged 40+. We asked them why now? They all agreed that they wanted to take advantage of the low prices and interest rates. As these couples acclimate to the area we have been happy to introduce them to the gay scene, friends and culture that we have all come to love.
