Pie Town
A very tiny western New Mexico town in Catron County where not much happens except the annual Pie Festival and the occasional dance. There are two pie shops, both of which serve fabulous food but are very unreliable about being open and also about their pies. There is also a post office, a lawyer's office, a fire station, some houses, and a park with a pavilion perfect for skateboarding and dances. No traffic to worry about, but just in case there's a sign when you enter saying "Caution, Congested Area." People are friendly, there are lots of ranchers and hippies, and everything is laidback and casual. Not much to do except go to the pie shops and yak over coffee, or go to the BookMobile every month, or make up interesting rumors about people you only know vaguely. The town attracts a lot of tourists - hikers, bikers, horseback riders - and a lot of them have interesting tales to tell.
Right on the Continental Divide...it's all downhill from here!
