Living in Santa Fe

I tried all the coffee shops in town, but finally decided on Iconik Coffee Roasters, just off of the southern wash greenway. I biked there daily. Did food shopping at La Montañita Food Co-op, near the northern wash greenway, near downtown.
In May, I was comfortable. June got too hot. It was either turn on the AC, pay for that electricity, and bear the noise, or sit in front of a fan.
But I had a glorious two months of trailer life.
Took a few trips. One to visit a friend across the border in St. Johns, Arizona. One to Los Alamos, and a couple of lunch trips to Albuquerque.
The seven-foot height of my trailer was too short. I started feeling smothered. I'd wake up at night to panic attacks. When my bladder stone steadily reduced my pee from a trickle every hour during the night to not able to pee at all without a catheter, I had to do something. So I drove five days back to Knoxville, arranged for an operation to remove the stone, and stayed with my son.
All cured by an hour under the knife, and he didn't even need to cut anything.
