OFF TRAIL 05/14/2025

PERSONAL ESSAYS AND VISIONS by writer, artist, photographer, musician John Hamilton Farr from 7,000 feet in the Terrible High Desert™ of northern New Mexico, U.S.A. As the late Bill Whaley wrote in my copy of his Taos memoir, Gringo Lessons: Twenty Years of Terror in Taos:

“You're one of the few who arrived and immediately experienced the spiritual imagination of the place and appreciated it in an articulate and instinctive way. What intrigues me is how many people move here and are tone deaf. I can't figure out why they are here since they might as well live in Colorado: beautiful but soulless...the chthonic spirits are absent. ‘Course sometimes a man needs relief from the resonating spirits. They can drive you mad.”

-Bill Whaley: Taos writer & publisher (Horse Fly)

I write about my experiences in the world and don’t hold back, with lots of photographs. (Scroll down!) All of this is free because I want the world to see my work but consider a paid subscription at $5/month or $50/year to help it grow. My creative life is wild these days and there’s a lot I want to share. See JHFARR.ART for every link that matters, but GODDAMN BUFFALO is absolutely what you want ‘cause this is where I publish first.
