New school year, same monument controversies

1. Texas Roadhouse opening in Santa Fe

Finally somewhere for the Texans to eat!

2. New Mexico public school students return to the classroom

And the early morning traffic jams return to the Southside

Police should just armor themselves with sarcasm like the rest of us

4. City mounts Zozobra sculpture downtown

Next up: Year-round fire dancer

5. Vice President Kamala Harris vetted Lujan Grisham for presidential ticket

But was unimpressed with her dad jokes

6. City councilors want to study moving controversial Soldier’s Monument to the Santa Fe National Cemetery

Public comments will be taken via seance.
