Cursed Land, Magnificent Healer
“One can feel something uneasy here in Truth or Consequences, certainly, some strange shimmer of electric sorrow but also the stubborn blooming promise of healing, of transformation. The waters want to love you. The air wants to bless you. This place wants to be remembered as sacred by all who walk here.”
The Truth or Consequences Dispatch
Our Reading and Traveling reporters descended on Truth or Consequences, New Mexico to write and soak in the healing tubs at the Pelican Spa, explore the back alleys and the street benches, caffeine-up and dance at Ingo’s Art Cafe, eat delicious omelets, burgers, and veggie options at the The Giddy Up Cafe and The Grapevine Bistro, interview booksellers and tumbleweeds, and find out whatever did happen to Destiny’s Keto Kitchen.
