Today for some unexpected reason I stopped here to look for pioneers. It was another typical beyond chaotic day in the trenches of Santa Fe real estate where things appear to either go right or wrong all at the same time. When those events seem to collide, I head for the road to experience the land and all the reasons why I love this magical place. About six miles from the Historic Plaza on the Historic Santa Fe Trail my imagination kicked into gear when I caught the mountain looking at me.
How could I race past this place? After all, this was where pioneers and traders traveled to finish dreams and find riches of opportunity in the early eighteen hundreds. They moved in wagons without Facebook or an ipad or twitter for weeks along a 900 mile trail from Missouri. Their ability to dream erased their uncertainity. I just had to stop and soak in some of their dreams and experience the joy of looking for new things. I found this image and got gooseflesh remembering how their journey made mine possible.
I hope this inspires you to stop and dream once a day.
