Santa Fe, NM! Book Tour entry #2

 

Thank you Students & Teachers of Beautiful Santa Fe, NM! 

I have decided to include 3 little known factoids about each city that the 2020 Britfield Book Tour takes me! I absolutely love traveling and meeting new people! Everyone (and every city) has a story tell! As much as it is my desire to share my passion for creativity & storytelling on the tour, I believe that I will be the one to benefit from my encounters… to be forever changed by YOUR STORIES!

  1. In 1607, roughly 13 years BEFORE the pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock, Santa Fe was founded, making it the second oldest town in current day America. It was originally founded as La Villa Real de la Santa Fe de San Francisco de Asis, but its name was changed in 1610.

  2. According to New Mexican law, “idiots” are not allowed to vote. They don’t really give a clear definition of who gets included in that definition.

  3. Dancing while wearing your sombrero is illegal in New Mexico.

Talk to you all next from OK City!   C.R.
