	<description><![CDATA[Jim - I truly enjoyed reading this.  It was so evocative for me; both of my own days as a young architect and of all of the stories I have heard you tell.  You are a master of your craft, and I thank you.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Now that I think of it, Terry placed that house next to the shack of that poet. Kelly Pruitt built and lived in it, up on that point overlooking the Rio at the south end of the Presidio Valley.  I wonder if Pruitt's funky old digs are still there?]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[A real pleasure to read and be reminded of the austere beauty and the hardy people of West Texas and the Big Bend.  I built an adobe house in Presidio for Terry Bishop in the early 80s (composer Charles Fitts now lives in it, I am told). Lived down there for part of a year and almost didn't come back, so captivated by that country was I.<br />
<br />
Thank you.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Frank Welch!  gracious, graceful man indeed.  He came down to presidio-on-the-rio-grande to do an adobe story as construction was winding up and I treasure his writing.   Lovely piece, long live epiphanies, and the Texas range in the big bend.  Long-winded here is literature.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Yup, been out there a few times between Presidio Adobe Alliance dot org , Fort Davis, and MacDonald Observatory.  The land informs us as much as the dark starry nights and as the people or critters.<br />
Thank you for your wonderful story. Thank you. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Refreshingly tender and articulate, and told with the perfect balance of wit and whimsy. The people and landscapes came alive in the narrative. I felt that the author's willingness to reveal his observations as well as his personal aspirations made the piece more memorable and meaningful.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Thank you for another great Texas tale. As a girl who spent 10 summers in the Davis Mountains at a dude ranch and as a graphic design major I loved this story. I grew up in Texas and we were always encouraged to make a good story better. I now live in Minnesota, and I love it here, but sometimes I miss a good yarn about the places and people I love. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[A lovely story, beautifully rendered. I love that it is only about design tangentially. Or perhaps it is about how the design of life, of each moment, trumps every time our conceits of design. Thanks for this reminder. And for the image of that gleaming martini shaker in the raw wind-scrubbed landscape, which I hope will stay with me for a long while. ]]></description>
