That's good advice from Jacqui. I went to see my accountant before setting up my business and I'm very glad that I did. She helped me through the paperwork and how to handle the quarterly taxes. An... Continue

I had a memorable visit to Toronto once. The b&b where I stayed was in a neighborhood that still had a lot of old world-style charm. There was a bread shop just for bread. A cheese shop just for cheese. The proprietors knew their stuff and provided customer service in a way that a l… Continue

Amtrak's New Digs

If you've ever ridden a train in or out of Albuquerque, you've seen the sad state of the cramped, worn-out Amtrak station down on 1st Street. For a town with a proud history of locomotive repair, the largest Harvey House by the rails (the old Alvarado) and some spectacular railroad boom years, this s…
