Taos, New Mexico on a clear July night. Mable’s apricot-colored adobe walls are awash in moonlight. Coyotes howl in the distance. The moon is a perfect reflector of sunlight. Its glow is welcomed on this inky night. Walking to our bedrooms from the yoga building our feet are barely visible. Just like moonlight on a
