On the Road in New Mexico: The Old Mill and Salman Raspberry Ranch

August 28, 2012 by Jeane George Weigel

On the way back to Truchas from our road trip to Las Vegas we stopped along side the road at the site of an old mill. Today the Salman Raspberry Ranch is famous for its fresh raspberries.

I am Jeane George Weigel, a working artist living in the mountains of northern New Mexico, and I do not think you and I are so different.

Every single one of us longs to know what we ache for, to “follow our bliss” as Joseph Campbell famously put it. You may find yours as an artist, a writer, or a teacher. But I am convinced we all yearn to live what is in our hearts. Some of us spend a lifetime discovering what that is. Some never find it.

This blog is about a journey of self-discovery, yours and mine. I write about the experience of living an artist’s life and share musings and photos as this living experiment unfolds. It is my hope you’ll join in the conversation by writing to me about your lives and I dearly hope something, here, will inspire you.
