No matter what our political persuasion we can all agree that we are some of the luckiest people alive because we call New Mexico home. The breathtaking beauty of this land is ours to experience each and every day. That's a gift of a lifetime and one we pause to acknowledge on Thanksgiving 2003.

AFTER THE TURKEY, JOIN ME ON THE RADIO
Friday at 9 a.m. ABQ City Councilor Greg Payne will pinch-hit for Larry Ahrens on KKOB-AM and host lobbyist Scott Scanland and me for an hour of post-holiday political chatter. As always, you're invited. Have a relaxing holiday weekend and we'll see you back here Monday with more New Mexico politics.
