Ambassador for Santa Fean
A deep bow from the waist for the clear and joyful “evolution” of the publication as beautifully embodied in this current issue. There is a growing maturity in the subjects and text which delights this longtime subscriber-reader.
This issue shows me how overdue I am to share with our nonresident friends the life purpose and character of the people who make Santa Fe Santa Fe. One of my sons and family live in the Malibu, CA area, and their 150-plus-page monthly publication is filled with vapid articles on the “right shoes for each occasion,” the need to be highly selective in choosing your cosmetic surgeon, etc. Now, look at where you and your staff have chosen to focus reader attention: the values, the whys of living here. I am proud to be a subscriber.
Please send me six more copies of this issue that I might forward them to friends, including ambassadors in other countries who have expressed interest in visiting here with their families. In this instance, it pleases me greatly to be your ambassador.

Curb Appeal
I just received the June/July issue of the Santa Fean and the front cover is absolutely stunning! Those colors are so luscious I want to eat them with a spoon. Haven’t opened it up yet but wanted to tell you how much I like the “curb appeal.” You have outdone yourselves.

Smiling Down
Years ago I worked at Joe Sommer’s law office and knew [Santa Fean founders] Betty [Bauer] and Marion [Love] quite well (Joe was their attorney). I remember their excitement when they came in with the idea of the Santa Fean. How wonderful that you have chosen to carry on. I’m sure the ladies are up there in “Santa Fe Heaven” and happily smiling. I wish you the very best.
