Food Deserts

Taos, New Mexico has a public radio station you can listen to online called Cultural Energy dot org. Today, a show about food deserts talks about how the poor often have no good healthy food outlets. You can hear the show at http://www.culturalenergy.org/mp3/farmthruseasonsdec08.mp3

Why the thoughts about Taos? I watched the movie "Off the Map", based in Taos and was drawn to the energy. It's about a young girl and her father who suffers from depression. An IRS agent comes out to their rural house to collect back taxes and meets her mom in the garden. The story unfolds...

Free associating, I recall days I spent driving across New Mexico and am reminded of the almost legendary Abominable Snowmansion hostel in Taos.
