Hidden stash

I did finished my reading for my next book club. The assignment was to read the biography of a woman. I picked Mabel Dodge Luhan (1879–1962) because JCB gave me a volume of her memoirs a loooong time ago, and I’ve never read it. Turns out she was quite a character. Dodge was husband number two, and Lujan was husband number four—although she changed the spelling (perhaps unpredictably, she reserved their post office box in the name Lujan). She and number four lived in Taos for over four decades, and now I’m jonesing to visit Taos…and contemplating staying in the Lujan’s/Luhan’s Big House.
