Ty's Take There's something worth watching in how a small town keeps its culture alive, and this week Pagosa's got three chances to see it happening. A kid named Travers Vasek is playing a senior recital—that's the moment when a young

Las Cruces Daily Digest Sunday, May 24, 2026

Ty's Take There's a particular weight to a Tuesday morning when the paper leads with the names of people who won't be around to read it. George Jackson made it to seventy; Paul Lawrence to eighty-four—both solid runs in this valley where the
